How do I keep my cats off my amplifier?
even worse than sand paper cats hate a sock in the mouth. 
Will the amp or speaker get damaged?
i would think a speaker selector would be the way to go if your intent is to use both speakers at the same time & it would take away the chance of amp or speaker damage.mike. 
Quit vinyl?

dbx Home Speakers
i heard a pair that was set up right & were ran with a big ass pioneer reciever & they sounded pretty damm good.it sure wouldnt hurt to hook em up to somthing better than the old jvc, dbx made some pretty decent midfi gear in the 80s.mike.

McIntosh MVP851 or Denon 5900
i just bought the mcintosh mvp841 & all i can say is smooth.

i use anti vibration devices under my cdp but thats as far as ill go with tweaks.mike.
