If your speakers were roughly equidistant from your listening position, this would not be a problem and the ICBM would work fine between receiver and amp. If you have a significant difference in distances it might be better to keep the bass management in the receiver in order to benefit from the delay adjustments, in which case the ICBM could still take care of your DVD-Audio and SACD needs.
Thanks for your input and knowledge Gonk....looks like it will be an ICBM taking care of the SACD/DVD-A business end of the system!
