You can go with a 2 channel integrated amp or separate pre amp/amp combo. Both of these will give you line level inputs to hook up a universal player like a Oppo 103 or 105 (for BR's and Pandora Netflix ect..), you can also hook up the Cable receiver to another input most are Unbalanced (rca) and some have Balanced (xlr) connections for inputs and outputs. Most Integrated amps or preamps have twin outputs so that is where you connect your amp for Sub.
How Do I set up a 2 Way system, for Movies/Music
Hi all, Well since I got my PSB imagine speakers, we have only been watching movies upstairs in 2 way mode. The room is open to the kitchen, and dinning, so side and rear surrounds were not possible anyway. (Wife's Standards)
So we are going to build a Theater downstairs, were the full surround experience can be had.
I have a Cambridge Audio 640R, but with only using 2 channels. It seems I don't need anything that big, or I could probably get something more musical for 2 Channel only, But then how do I include my Blu-Ray and cable box?
I am drawing a blank here on how to do this. I have been doing 5.1 and 7.1 systems for so long, I don't know how to set up a small system without the large receiver.
I should add, I do use a VMPS sub, that I power with a Rotel Amp.
