In a "pure" type of mode the noise floor is slightly lower, but this isn't meaningful since it's already below audibility at typical volume settings from the usual listening position.

If your question about the turntable setup refers to it being connected to the speaker at the same time, the previous problem still exists. Otherwise, there'd be no reason for it to "degrade" the sound to any extent other than might be inherent in that format as compared with the CD.


What I meant when I said "The way to go" is the Setup. Ofcourse I'm not running two amp into the main anymore. To bypass or not the Denon 3805? I don't want any processing what so ever. NOTHING. I want a pure sound from my TT, Cinemag Sut, Phonopreamp with NOS telefunken and mullard tubes, Denon poa 1500, M60ti..Apparently, the pure direct mode only reproduces the signal coming in but i found out that I have to turn off the Subwoofer in that mode to get true two channel sound. If the pure Direct Mode does what is says it does, than there is no reason for me to run two different setups. One for home theatre and one for analog music playback. I have to do more research onthe Pure Direct mode. The other question. is upgrading from a m60ti to a version 3 really worth the extra investment? If it is than I'll have to put my speakers up for sale.

Although the manual and others always say the “Pure Direct” mode bypasses all processing on my Denon 2807 it had a menu option to have the subwoofer either “ON” or “OFF” in all 2ch modes. This setting was separate from the various multi-channel modes which could have the subwoofer turned “ON” even if it was “OFF” in 2ch.

On my Onkyo I simply cycle through the output options were “Direct” doesn’t use the subwoofer but “Stereo” does if I set it to in a submenu.

I imagine you should have the option to have the subwoofer not be engaged when using 2ch modes just a matter of finding the settings.
