Chris, The SR7000 switches the front speakers setting to "large" automatically in "direct" mode. BTW, I've heard Denon's receivers also allow individual level adjustment in 6-channel input. Van

Yohan, I'm not sure what you meant by stereo by-pass. Here is how my SR7000 behaves in various modes: When front speakers are set to large: 1. Sub is inactive in 2-channel "auto" mode. 2. Sub is active in 2-channel "stereo" mode. 3. Sub is inactive in 2-channel "direct" mode...

Cary, If it does, it is certainly doing a fairly good job. The SR7000 sounds horrible in CD stereo mode assuming it is doing the A/D to D/A conversion. It would be nice for get to the bottom of this though. Van

Cary, Mine does the same thing. I doubt that the SR7000 is doing A/D and D/A though as I can't detect any sonic difference between the 6-channel direct and 2-channel direct mode when playing two channel music. I actually find that to be very beneficial as you probably know that the sub...

Dennis, You might want to check the receiver's setup menu. I use the Rotel 1075 with a Marantz receiver and it works just fine. I'm not sure what pre/pro you are using, but the Marantz must be setup in the DC trigger menu where you can select the input (e.g., DVD, CD) to trigger the amp.

Dennis, Thanks for the response. I too use a Marantz (SR7000). Interestingly, I'm using both outputs in the opposite manner currently without any problem. The front L/R speakers are connecting to the receiver's L/R speaker ternimals as usual and the L/R pre-outs are connected to the powered...

When you use an outboard amp in a receiver, the amp will be connected to the pre-outs of the receiver and speakers will be driven by the amp's power via its speaker terminals. Since the receiver has a built in amplifier, I believe the receiver is sending signals to its pre-outs (unamplified)...
