The 1050 doesn't have bass management for the 5.1 analog input - that was something that was pretty much unheard of when the 950 offered it. The 1050 can do bass management for all digital inputs and all stereo analog inputs but not for 5.1 input, and the Denon's bass management settings only apply to the 5.1 analog output (digital outputs and downmixed analog stereo outputs are not affected by the player's large/small settings).
