How to combine 2ch int amp with HT

Hi, All.

I am planning to buy integrated amplifier (not decided which one yet) to drive B&W N804 speakers. -- My primary goal is music. But I also want to have Home Theater. So I am also going to buy a/v receiver and more speakers for surround sound.

I do not understand (I am a newbie :-) how can I combine all the pieces into a single system. Will I be able to use N804 as front speakers? How to connect all the sources? And etc.

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Doodley, sorry for late answer. I thought the thread is over. I've made my mind on int amplifier: McIntosh 6500. I might upgrade to MA6900. I am looking for CD player now. Very time consuming process...

Carl, thanks for your input. Will it work with integrated amplifier? I guess not. Does the switch box downgrade sound?

Take a peak at what I did :

Above is my web page.. I requested in the summer JenaLabs to build me and good quality XLR switch box.. This allows my Aero Audio Capitole MK II to go directly to my Halcros. With a flick of a switch, I switch to my pre/pro Lexicon MC12B. I preferred the sound of the CAP direct compared to bypass mode on the MC12B.

This allowed me to sell my Levinson 380S, a great piece on its own but redundant
