A/V to AMP?

[Snake Doctor]

How would I setup an A/V receiver to be the amp for a pre-pro? Would it be as simple as connecting the speaker jacks from the pre-pro to the A/V? Since I have to send my AMP in for repair I would like to be able to still use 5.1 and it seems as if connecting my Yamaha to my Integra would be a workable way. No?

Thanks,

If I correctly understand what you're wanting to do, I think it'd be better to just swap out your Pre/Pro for the AVR for the time being.

I was wondering if that was the better option, it is what I have done in the past. Thanks Zing!

ATI 1505 - the left channel and sub went out.

Wait ... you’re using the 1505 for the sub?

Nope, I re-read and that is what it sounded like. I am having issues with the sub - I keep fighting getting a new one.

I decide to run sound through the TV...I really don't want to carry a A/V up and down stairs - those things tend to get a little heavy.
