Wow thanks for the replies e-t172, very informative. My only worry about LFE being detectable when using mpc audio renderer set to exclusive wasapi (lav mixer disabled), was that I thought in that case there was no mixer whatsoever involved, so I'm just confused as to whats mixing the LFE into the 2 channels in that particular case. Maybe its mpc renderer itself in this case (although i don't have it set to mix channels at all). I just want to know what pieces of software are involved in the various combinations. I'll use your approach of using lav audio to downmix and I'll use 0.71, 0.71 and 1.58 as recommended.

My main reason for trying to use wasapi in various cases (winamp / mpc) is so that I can play a mix of say 44.1khz and 48khz content, and my understanding is with wasapi there should be no conversion, where as without it, the mixer is converting to whatever I have set in windows sound settings.

Thanks again.
