Dolby Pro Logic is very nice on this receiver. It takes DPL to the limits of what it can do. My Denon AVR-2500's DPL sucks compared to this one. So, even for those DSS channels that aren't DD, DPL sounds way better than it did.

As for the analog bypass, it is there. There is a DIRECT button on the receiver to bypass the electronics. I am surprised that you did not find that on their website, as that was a major selling point for me. I am using Chris VH's Fine Silver IC's from the PD-65, and a Tributaries digital cable from the DV-05.

HTH,
