Some of us who are more into multi-channel music than HT still use multiple preamps to drive six channels. Others of us use multichannel preamps, some of which only have one set of multi-channel analog bypasses. And lots of receivers are in that boat.

An inexpensive but quality switcher, tied to any universal remote, that allowed say a DVD-A/DVD player, a SACD player, and the input from a hi-rez TV to be switched would be welcome.

And if you could add a passive attenuator for all six channels to serve as a master volume control, so much the better (perhaps one model with attenuation, another switch only?)
