I have a stereo pre-amp & a HT Receiver with line level outputs.

HT L/R outputs feed an input on the stereo preamp. Set stereo to fixed volume (80 dB) for HT use. Calibrate HT at that level, adjust theater volume with HT Receiver.

as i said in an earlier post, this is the new village idiot with megaphone in hand, same blather and nonsense over and over again

You hurt my feelings.  Time for some uplifting Barry Manilow youtube vids from my amazing ht system.
