Dumb question HT bypass

@fuzztone
´´Please do not even attempt to explain how adding complexity makes 2 channel reproduction sound better. "Sugar" free for me.
I rescind my query for that. ´´

This was not my goal. I wrote about connections ….
But the idea of HTBP is precisely to have ´´ 2 channel reproduction sound better ´´ without using two
separated system .

If you can’t tolerate the ´´Sugar ´´ , why then are you asking how to cook using ´´Sugar ´´ in the first place ?

It may be for general knowledge, and that would be fine with me.

That does however explain his rejecting my perfectly good curb idea. Not complicated enough. 

Scolding?
I merely asked to avoid answering my posed question that was unrelated to the original.
Other than that I welcome critique if I'm unclear or wrong.

Give it a rest. More people enjoy their AVRs than you can process. Who cares WHAT your phobias are?

I thanked ruebent quickly. Your point is?

I appreciate the discussion and have sorrow for the troll.

Just to state the semi obvious, you don’t actually need an HT bypass as any line or tape input on the stereo preamp will work.  The main benefit of this is that it opens up tons more stereo pre options.  The bad news is you need to manually adjust the volume and push a button to switch between stereo and HT rather than just push a button.  Oh the humanity!  Sorry if this just complicates things further,  but I couldn’t help myself trying to help.

Not on mine. The stereo's input is dedicated to the AVR.  It just sets as fixed the stereo's volume pad for that input so you can use the AVR master volume for all channels simultaneously..  Either your setup is different or it's not as obvious as you contend.  Either way it is not for me.  Have at it. 

I have found a more useful purpose.
