Thanks Eric,

I am feeding a pcm only signal and tried setting all inputs to bypass. Keep in mind I'm only running a 2.1 setup at this point, so there may not be any signal at the SR/SL output jacks even though the front panel display shows that the surrounds are enabled. Do you ever see less than four speaker icons on the front panel display.

Relative to the "full-range" signal coming from the sub, I spoke with Outlaw and was told this is by design because some people run full range speakers at all positions . However, these people would be out of luck when using a digital input because the xover works as expected then. Part of my problem is that I'm trying to use a "passive" sub because I thought I could rely on the bass management in the 990. So, if I understand correctly, in order to listen to an analog 2ch source, in stereo with a sub, I need to have an active sub and ensure that it's internal xover is set to the same freq as the 990. Does this sound right to you folks?

Thanks!
