On thing I cant figure is if there is any real analog pass thru in that
reciever I doubth it has it.

It's pure audio mode turns of the video circiuts , that i figured.

if you are going to use any processing including the subwofer output,
digital conection is a given.

Most modern av recievers digitise the analog inputs. This means that
the Squeezebox analog ouput with ist DAC is going to an ADC ( analog to
digital converter ) in the Onkyo and then to the Onkyo's DAC, you want
to avoid this, by using a digital input.

Given this recievers advanced eq posibilities I think you are meant to
use digital inputs for any serius source, the analog inputs are there
to support legacy sources that does not have digital outputs.

The short answer :
On most modern AV recievers you should use a digital input for your
squeezebox.

IMO I think most modern design have abandoned the concept of a pure
analog path, the volume controll is probably digital too, so you also
want to keep the Squeezebox at 100% volume for bit perfect transmission
to the digil processor in the onkyo.
