Hi Guys
I've decided I'm going to add a high quality 2CH preamp into my existing Home Theatre setup.
Currently, my system comprises of:
Rotel RSP-1066 (Great for my HT needs)
Rotel RMB-1075 (Great for HT, but lacking in 2CH) Replacement Bryston 9B THX
Pioneer 989. (Using as a Transport to my RSP-1066 for 2CH Audio)
Bryston BP16 (PreAmp for 2CH Sources)
Focal 1007 be Bookshelves speakers
Currently, the Rotel just sounds flat with 2CH sources but great for HT. I've decided rather then rather lash out $10k for a great 2CH/HT Prepro (Bryston SP2) I'm going to keep my Rotel Processor and add in a Bryston BP-16 PreAmp
Can you tell me how the HT Bypass works? I want to use my Pioneer 989 (optical or can I use the 2CH analog output and use Pioneers AUDIO only mode) to the Bryston BP16 and use the Bryston DACs for 2CH. If I use digital, assume I dont need to run 2 sets of digital connections for DVD & CD? 1 to the Bryston for 2CH and one to the RSP for HT?
When I want to use the Pioneer 989 for DVD-A/SACD and more importantly, DVD Video how do I go about getting the Audio through to my RSP-1066?
Further, how does volume control? does the bypass mean I dont need to match volumes on the RSP/BP16?
Thanks guys
