I downloaded the firmware upgrade for my newly acquired 990. Guys, do you think it will pe possible installing it may lead to a non working unit? In that case I'd rather refrain from it, as returning it to the USA is almost out of the question... Now, I once had an Arcam AVR300 which was a notorious difficult upgrader, but whatever happened it always reverted to the in-unit software stored in ROM, after a few resets that was. Daresay that'd happen for the 990 as well?

@kgt I did play around a lot with the sub settings on my (now to be replaced) Marantz SR9600. As often advised, I've set the crossover to 60Hz and my center and rears to small, although these went down to 45 Hz. But I didn't like the sound (bit mushy and thin) so I stuck with 80 Hz, all bass to the speakers PLUS to the sub. This sounds best, and I guess it'll be even better because I believe I can set the 990 to different level for the sub in stereo mode.

How do you access this screen to adjust the sub trim for 2 channel analog ?
