Hi again James & Mike,
I did try using the L-AUX L & R-AUX outputs to connect to my 2 subwoofers, with "Large Front Speakers" & "Subwoofer OFF" setting. The full range frequencies came out all right to the subs for 2-CH bypass / stereo mode when playing music. However, with this setting, there seems to be no LFE/bass to the subs at all when playing movies with HDMI input engaged.
I now have to go back to using SUB and R-AUX outputs with "Large Front Speakers", "Subwoofer ON", "in2BYPASS ON", and "XTRA BASS ON" so that I can play both music and movies without messing with cables behind. Not quite as Magnepan CC5 center speaker manual would recommend, but it's convenient.
