Can you split the center preout & go to 2 separate amps? Also can you use only one channel L or R on the amp without it hurting the amp? I have 3 center spks & want to use 2 separate amps, they both can only use A or B spks at a time. Thanks

Yes, I split my center out for a 2ch amp. Worked great. Make sure u use a high quality y adapter.

Thanks for everyones help. I should have said if it would degrade the sound by splitting with y adapter at the receiver. Then going to 2 separate amps. Also would it hurt a stereo amp by just using one spk output?My HT set-up Panasonic front proj, 120 in ws screen, ATI amp,Integra 9.8 pre-pro, 2 Polk rti150, cp 1000, 4 fx 1000, Pioneer blu-ray 2 SVS sub pb 12-ultra 2, & Paragon popcorn popper. ps 3 Coaster leather HT recliners.

just curious, But why a high quality Y adapter?? I really am just wondering, as generally we want high quality everything wire wise, but i used a Rat shack Y until i got my monster basic Y and both sound and work the same.. after all its only a few inches of wire from a non powered pre-amp out at that, so is there a short answer to this??MY HT RIG:
