Hooking subs to HT and 2 Channel rig

Hey guys, I need some help.
I have a dedicated 2 channel set-up and a HT set-up both located in the same space. These are completely separate systems. I also have 2 subwoofers that I can only have hooked up to one system at a time. I think I need a simple switch box that both systems would feed and I can then manually switch based on which system I'm enjoying. I could have one sub connected to each system but that would be no fun :cheesygrin:.
Here is a basic switch I found http://www.amazon.com/RECOTON-VS1002-Switcher-2-Inputs-1-Output/dp/B001L9OBZO. Would this be a good way to go? Is there a better switch to use?
Alternatively, I may be able to connect both systems to both subs. Each sub has L & R RCA inputs. I could probably connect the 2 channel system to each L input and connect the HT to each R input. I would only have 1 system powered up at a time. Would this work? I think it might.
Here's my gear:
2 channel
Oppo 980h / Squeezebox Duet
Audio Mirror DAC
Audio Mirror Pre
Dynaco ST-70 amp
Epos ELS-3
2 x Rythmik F12SE
HT
Panasonic Blu-ray
Onkyo 805
Emotiva XP3
LSi15?s
LSiC
LSi80?s
