Are Their any Tube Preamp with Home Theater Bypass?

In my opinion, a well designed tube preampsgenerally out perform solid state. Yes, tubes need to be replaced and cost money. This can be completely inconsequential or a big deal depending on the preamp… preamps with tubes for amplification and for the power supply are more costly…but it depends on usage.

But backing up a bit. The biggest compromise is likely to be combining a audio system with a home theater. This is generally a huge compromise of the audio system. One I would not, and have not had to make. These two systems have vastly different objectives. If humanly possible, best to keep them separate.

I would recommend we go back to your current system, components, restrictions on space. If I had an alternative of a living room combined HT and audio system and a HT in the living room and a walk in closet with my audio system. I would choose to have two systems and listen to my audio system in the walk in closet.

I would think about that first… then start thinking about how to move forward.

oddio the way we described works perfectly it just requires you to adjust the pramps volume which you must recall a piece of tape with an arrow works or if your preamp has a numerical display you just have to use that  number on the display

so in our scenario the op can look at any preamp and other the losing a few seconds to preset the volume he can purchase any tube pre he likes

About tubes , I just wanted to point out that it is not a free ride.

For movies and music . And  if someone  begin to worry , each time he spend an evening watching movies .

well ……

@ghdprentice , I have a nice room for my two channel setup on my desktop. That makes a lot of sense, thanks.
