Yes, the standard DD setup allows for sub=no or LFE = no, but doing so i have never been able to achieve the rumble out of the main speakers that you achieve by sending the LFE directly to a sub. I have had the same experience with 3 different DD/DTS receivers is have had. I believe that what i happening is that when the sub is set to 'no' then the dynamic range may be compressed to not allow the ultra-lows to be sent to the 'large' speakers.... don't know this for a fact, just my own observations. has anyone here been able to reproduce the rumble with the sub set to no?
