Thanks Gonk. Yes, I can add a subwoofer cable (or I can buy the ICBM). However, this leads me to a couple of other questions....

1) If 6 channel analog input is not using the digital portion of the 950, am I also losing the distance settings? My front speakers are 14 ft away and my surrounds are 8ft. So, is 6 channel assuming they are all the same distance?

2) For the 2 channel bypass, does it also not use the digital portion of the 950? Specifically, am I losing anything by not having the sub out connected or does full frequency go to the front L/R? I have front L/R set to large and sub set to none.
