Yeah, you basically clarified what I thought. You have little control of the "extra" stereo pair generated when using the Rear L/R section (5.1 amps) of an A/V amp; rudimentary volume (limited steps) if at all. But I guess the volume control on the SB can do the work! Interesting idea though, for multi-room on a shoe-string, particularly as end-of-line/second hand A/V amps are cheap!
