I think I am going to agree with the first suggestion. Get a nice, cost effective a/v receiver (an NAD preferably) and then with the center and rear channel speakers, run them through the receiver and your front L/R speakers?? Just run them through your Sonic Frontiers/Thorens preamp/amp setup. Before hooking up your center channel and rear channel speakers, run the receiver through the processor loop of your Sonic Frontiers preamp, that way when you just want to listen to music, you can switch off the receiver without effecting the sound quality of your 2 channel setup. You can always switch it back on when you want to watch a movie.
