Hi.
I'd like to be able to switch between (2) pairs of speakers (a pair of
old AR's and a pair of Hafler M5's). It would be great if they could
share my Hafler P3000 amp.

I have a guy working on my console right now who recommended I pick up
one of these:

and he'd wire it into a blank Meterbridge panel spot I have.

What do you think???



Many Thanks...............

In the consumer world they are pretty common now, since so many of the
cheaper amplifiers use bridged output stages so they can get away with
lower voltage power supplies. Yechh.
