Receivers and Active EQ


Hi,

We recently bought an ONKYO TX-SR701 receiver and a Pioneer DV-667As for my dad who has a pair of BOSE 901VI. Dad would like to use the 901s as the front surround channels, unfortunately the speaker's active EQ is proving to be a challenge to insert between the signal path.

At the moment, we have to use our old ONKYO M504 power amp with the receiver's front pre-outs, which wastes both the receiver's internal amps and the power amp's P304 pre amp.

We could also use the DVD player's built in surround decoder with the receiver's multi-channel inputs, but we'd rather use the receiver's better (?) decoders.

Selling the 901s is not an option... You know how fanatical BOSE owners can be

There must be a way around this problem, has anyone found a solution he'd/she'd like to share?

TIA

Isaac
