why doesnt "cd direct" sound better ??


have a pioneer DV-10ax and when the "cd direct" is turned off through the programming menu, the unit takes on a entirely different sound (beautiful mid and slightly warm on top with rounder / fuller images)..

any idea why ? shouldnt the cd direct sound better ?

"direct" sounds way better on my anthem. It gets rid of any processing for HT that is involved and acts as a pure pre-amp from my denon dvd. Much cleaner and better for 2 channel, kind of lame for theater though.
