A / B Switching

Does anyone have any experience with using a switch to go between speaker pairs?
which unit is best?
concerns over running multiple pairs?

Ive got a pair of B&W 802’s and a Dahlquest DQ-10 (full system).  Mac 2105 amp C 28 preamp.  I’d love to keep both speaker sets in the system, but concerns over signal degradation by the switch or burning up my amp.  Thanks

I used to use a Niles Audio SVC2, high quality, controls volume also

Thanks guys for the advice. My listening room isn’t huge.  I may have to end up running the DQ-10’s off a separate system in another, larger, room just based on the space requirements

You will more likely burn up the switch. They are all rated fairly low.

way overkill - but this thing works and it is quite a truth teller!

iirc niles made a line of regular speaker selectors... ok, not great fidelity but did the job safely
