I have a parasound 2125, need help with Pre-amp

Hi everyone. I have a Parasound 2125 running to two Definitive technology tower speakers with powered subwoofers built into the speakers. I am more familiar with speakers and amplifiers. This is my first setup breaking it into a rack instead of using a Receiver. I also have a Speaker selector switch I need to power. My questions are as follows.

Will I need another Amp than the Parasound 2125 to power the 2 Definitive Technology speakers and the speaker selector switch? If so do they make amplifiers for speaker selector switches. Like a one channel?

Also I need recommendations on good Parasound Pre-amps new or used that could do what I am trying to accomplish. I have been looking at the Parasound P3 but not sure if there are other brands that make better pre-amps that sound good with Parasound Amplifiers.

Also Any additional equipment that you think would help out this process let me know.

I am only providing Video Feed to one HDTV, do I need a Video Processor will the difference be noticeable or can I hook the HDMI from the Cable Box to the PC and run 2 coax from the cable box for the Rack setup audio. If so what are some good equipment Pre-amp/Video Processors available? Also any additional advice on power conditioners or anything I'm leaving out that would help significantly I would appreciate it very much.


Respectfully,
Sam

Brother, you've got a whole lot of questions there! You're going in several directions at once, maybe we should find out: what exactly are you trying to accomplish? A home theater or a 2 speaker system for your tv watching? Maybe you should list all of the equipment you have too.

A couple of questions to help narrow it down. How many speakers are you trying to power? You have the Definitive speakers, but you say you need to power a speaker selector. A speaker connector normally has 4 or 6 other speakers connected to it.

Another question. What are your sources? It looks like cable box, PC(?), but no disc player? Why do you want a video processor?
