    nope. I use it and its just fine, although, for music, I'd recommend you use a 'direct mode' to bypass all the DSP stuff.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    I've installed a SurroundBar50 w/ Onkyo Audessey and experienced no issues.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Thanks billbillw. Good to know. I have been using pure mode with the Monitor 12s and like it alot for some music.

    I'm not sure if this applies to the Denon or not, but with my Onkyo SR805, the Direct mode disables the sub, disables Audyssey, and sends a full range signal to the mains. With the SDA 1C, I think you will find that no sub is needed for music and you get a better 2 channel experience without it. For HT, a sub is still preferred.
