I do have my Blu-ray player set up that way per your instructions and it sounds great. One thing I have never figured out is when setting the speaker crossovers for playing dvds on the 983 with coaxial connections and running my speakers on small, does setting it higher (i.e. from 80 to 100 etc.) send more information to the subwoofer or less? I assume that setting them depends on just how efficient you speakers are. I've been using an NHT-VT-1 speaker system that I really like for a long time. The crossover for all the front speakers is listed at 2.8Khz and 2.2 for the surrounds. The front speakers response is 65Hz to 21KHz and the center speaker is 90Hz to 21Khz. The surrounds are 85Hz to 25Khz. Based on what I've read over the years and those numbers I've always set ithe crossover on the 950 at 80 per the manual's suggestion but have never been quite clear if I have been doing what's right, though it's always sounded great to me. Bottom line, I guess, is that's probably all that matters. (I have set the proper distances and used an SPL meter to set levels for the 950 for my dvd watching). Sorry if this is overload but i am a slow learner and thanks again.
