Need to use more than one amp with the same set of speakers..

I have a PA amp driving my PA speakers but sometimes I would like to drive the speakers with a couple of guitar amp-heads that I have. Is there a purpose-built switching device out there or am I stuck with manually switching connections?

This is only in my studio, BTW.

Regards,

    A passive speaker selector switch should work in either direction. Just connect the amplifiers up where you would normally connect the speakers and vice versa.

    Yes there are commercial speaker switching devices that don't cost too much. Check Sweetwater.
