I agree with this approach, but am not doing it currently. I have an old Hafler DH-100 that I may try for fun, but can you recommend an audiophile high quality 2 channel pre-amp / switcher with remote capability so that I do not lose the remote volume control / mute capability for CD's ? Any good used ones out there?

You don;t mention a budget, but I assumesomething inexpensive.
Remotes are hard, I really like tube pre's and a remote with a tube pre is impossible under $1k pretty much.
Barring tubes, personally I really dig passive pres. A passive has many limitations (short cables required, may not work with all amps) but if it works- it is a great sound- very clean
I used a Creek OBH-12, which is a remote pre with 3 inputs- perfect for 1 source plus HT receiver.
It looks tiny, any is cheap, but there is inherent quality to simplicity.
Drop me a line private like, . I have mine spare. I gotta get a remote replaced from Creek (went south) but can send mineto you to try. If you use a learning remote maybe we can download the codes and save time.dg
