Downsizing to 2.1 HT... how would you hookup the sub?

Posted by krugorg on September 28, 2008 at 12:02:26:
I am downsizing to a 2 channel + subwoofer HT setup. I am going to pickup a Pioneer Blu-Ray player (BDP-51FD) that handles decoding internally and then connect the analog stereo outputs to my BAT preamp.

I still have room for my ACI sub and I am debating on whether to use the LFE output on the Blu-Ray player, or 2nd set of outputs on my BAT preamp. I am leaning towards the BAT outputs, but wondering if the LFE information will get included in the Blu-Ray players stereo downmix? Or, is the LFE information lost?

Thanks in advance for any input!
