I have not tried a CD yet. In true analog 6 channel bypass mode, what is it doing? Am I getting full range to all speakers with a multichannel recording and bass sent to the sub? How does that work? Will it change when I start to use a turntable and a seperate input and "NOT" the 6 channel bypass anymore?

My speakers are all set in the blue ray player to large and volume of high and low is set to high. the decoder(950) has them all set to large, but the cross overs I set the center and surrounds to 80hz and the mains to 40hz...but i understand that in "large" in the decoder it just sends full signal anyway ot the mains. the sub.. with "analog bass management" set to "on". my trims are all at 2 and the surrounds are boosted to 3 with the sub boosted to 5..that sound reasonable? all the feet or distance settings are set as well.

If you check in your Outlaw 950's Instructions Manual, it should be indicated.
