I have Rowland Synergy 2i with bypass switch and would like to connect this to a home theatre receiver like the NAD Tivo two. I would like to check if this is possible and if so how do I connect it. My objective is to simply use the stereo speakers which are connected to preamp for the home theatre as well. I have tried connecting the DVD player direct to the preamp and I have problem listening to normal conversation in the movies as they are quite soft but the sound effects come in very loud. Thank and I look forward to your advise.

In order to accomplish your goals, you should be connecting a HT receiver/processor to your stereo preamp, not the other way around.Follow the directions from Rowland, as detailed in their FAQ. The HT receiver must have line-level outputs for the front channels to do this. Many low-end HT receivers do not have line-level outputs for front, center, or surround channels. I've never heard of a NAD "Tivo," but if you meant the NAD Viso, you need to know that it does not have the line-level outputs you will require.

Thanks for the advise. Do you know of any integrated receivers like the NAD Viso that has the line level outputs. As far as possible I would like to keep things simple instead of getting receivers, DVD players, etc.
Below is a link to the NAD home page. Is your receiver located on their site? If so, please provide a link to the exact model that you have. The "NAD Tivo two" doesn't seem to be something that they have listed, at least not that I could find with a quick look.
I've made a mistake its actually called the VISO Two.

From your initial post, you are looking to incorporate DVD playback in your system -- but, not surround/multi-channel playback. Correct?
You've tried hooking up a DVD player to your JR pre-amp and found that, although you can do it, dialogue is overshadowed by the effects. Correct?
What you need is a DVD player with a Dialogue Enhancement mode. What a player with this feature does is give you the perception that the dialogue has been boosted so that it is more intelligible -- even when output as stereo/2-channel audio from the DVD player.
There are several DVD players which have this feature. Click on the lnk below for a Google search on this topic.
