Getting a receiver with preamp outputs for all channels, and direct (analog) pre inputs for all channels, is something people look for in their SECOND AV receiver. Makes things very flexible. Even better if the receiver amps all have separate inputs, so you can switch around what amp does what. Very often the front amps are better, and if you use an external (music system) front amp, you can redirect the receiver front amps to the surrounds, say, or to the backs if you ever have them.

I have combined the music and HT systems, but only to the extent the front HT preamp outputs go over to the music system, otherwise they are separate. So nothing gets ruined for music, the DVDP not being used in the music system (though it could).
