The filter "ON/OFF" is really very simple . . .

>> I don't see why Denon didn't just provide a '6 full channel/5.1 channel' switch which would have allowed bass management for the 5.1 recordings and full music passthrough for the 6 channel. <<

BUT that's EXACTLY what the "filter" IS !!

i.e. All it does is to change between "5.1" and "6.0" modes.

Rationale: Obviously in 6.0 (i.e. full six-channel recorded music) you need a full-frequency bandwidth capability from ALL six analog output jacks [to six equally sized full-range (i.e. "large") speakers].

Also, all the six channels must have equal volume level. This is why you get the so-called "boost" to what would otherwise be the LFE channel.

But it’s not really a boost, because all it does is equalise (i.e. raise by ~10dB) the sixth channel to the same as all the others.
