Default Two-way to one-way speaker problem

Folks,

I've Googled until I was blue in the face about this problem, and a
few times came close, but no cigar!

My problem:

1. I have an Aiwa receiver that came with two-way speakers and has
only two-way speaker connections--"low" and "high."
2. There are no one-way connections at all.
3. BUT, I want to have a couple of sets of remote speakers that I'd
switch to on demand.
4. I know how to do the switching, so I covered there.
5. I already have those speakers, and they are all one-way.
6. SO, my problem is how to recombine the "high" and "low" speaker
outputs and then switch them to the remotes.

7. I DON'T know how to safely combine the receiver speaker output.

A few details:

1. According to its manual, each frequency range has its own
amplifier.
2. I have no idea how isolated (or not) the amps are. I don't know if
they share a common return or not.
3. The unit has speaker outputs for "surround" sound. They are one-
way. I will not be using these.

Here's the solution I've come up with using my woefully-inadequate
savvy. Please see my sketch drawing here (Google Docs with shortened
URL): http://bit.ly/mRxzgB.

What do you all think? Will this work? Is it safe for the amps?

Many thanks! ---Todd
