Hi Muhammed,
Youve got me a bit confused speaking about speaker cables to the sub. I guess one thing was the plural of cables. Are you using the amp in the sub to power all of your speakers?
I use a Denon 5800/03. becuse it has 2 sets of analogs I use separate multidisc hirez players for each, one of which is the dvp-nc650v 5 disc sacd mltich player.
Since the sub is powered and goes to 20hz I do all the standard connections for the two players and have the single preout cable going to the sub which is activated by the music either going through the analogs or the optical and coax cables connected for either film or the dd ot dts sound tracks I listen to. All speakers are set to small and the Denon handles the corossover wich renders the hz controle on the sub itslf moot and it is set to max.
The peak level limiter for the sub has been set and it has been spl'd to 75db as with each other speaker. For hirez music,only the 5.1 analogs or mltich or ext. or whatever their called on your reciever ONLY they can properly decode dsd or dvd-a. the other inputs are strictly stereo inputs. I actually use a 2ch stereo connection to the cd in from the snd card on my pc as Windows Media Player 9 in XP decodes HDCDs and if the algorythm is in the player the connection must be analog and vice versa.
I've never bought into the bass management thing particularly when it comes to music because if there is any LFE at all and I want more or less I just go to the volume knob for the sub and adjust it there, but I can't remember the last time I touched it.
Anyway, there's lots of stuff going on in those 5.1 analog inputs and their not interchangeable with other analog ins like for a cd or vcr. To many bass management is a bone of contention, to me it's a red herring.
If I've misunderstood what your doing like trying to bi-amp using extra channels please set me straight.
BTW I have a Tosh sd5109 dvd player from oct. 2000 which has the 5.1 analog outs. It does not decode 5.1 dvd-a.
