I'm assuming that you currently have a surround system and that you're powering your front/main speakers with the Stratos and the center/surrounds with the Sony. I think one of your few options is to flip the receiver and P3 connections. What devices do you currently have connected to both? DVD, CD, cable box, satellite, turntable?

First of all, it helps to explain to people in more detail what the equipment is, rather than just give model numbers. For instance:
Sony DA555ES - digital receiver with DTS/DD capability
Parasound P3 Halo - stereo preamp
Odyssey Stratos - 2-channel power amp
Here's the back panel of the P3 Halo:

The Sony has the bass management capabilities...the P3 does not. Just take the Tape Rec outputs of the P3 into an available analog input of the Sony. You'll ALWAYS have to have the Sony on when listening and you probably wanted to take advantage of the higher-end quality of the Parasound preamp section, but aside from buying something like an Outlaw ICBM, I think that's your simplest solution.

Thank YOU
