[QUOTE="croak, post: 34994, member: 361"] If you have no pre amp outs on the AV set a switch box or similar is needed. Ideally you would need 2 DPDT toggle switches or if you can find one (rare) a 4 pole toggle. Alternatively you could wire up a little "patchbay" using two "Speakon" sockets and a single Speakon connector hooking up your two speakers. Speakon connectors are pro grade speaker connectors using a keyed (no wrong way of putting it in) bayonet lock, designed for multiple rapid connect and disconnect operations. They are easily available with 4 contacts so stereo can be done with one connector. Should be available through your better musical instrument/PA shop. Neutrik invented them and their connectors are best (quite a bit better actually) but a little dearer then the China stuff. You should be able to get 2 panel mount sockets and a in line connector for about R150.00 [/QUOTE]
