No Stereo Output Issue Denon and Goldenears

Seriously, I have no life.
I am the proud owner of a pair of Golden Ears Triton Three tower speakers. I enjoy these hooked up to a fairly new Harman Kardon Stereo receiver for 2 channel stereo listening using my Thorens turntable or Rotel CD player. For Home Theater use I have a Denon AVR X4000 receiver. This AVR has 2 outputs for 2 sub woofers (LFE). Due to the uniqueness of these speakers, which have built-in sub woofers there has been much talk about getting the best low end from them during H/T applications. I have now attached the LFE outputs from the Denon AVR to the LFE inputs on each speaker and the bass seems better on movies and concert DVDs, however when I switch the AVR selector to Stereo only mode I do not have any sound coming out of any speaker. I cannot figure out why the connection of the LFE would affect my listening in stereo mode??? Thanks to any and all responding members.
When I read this, I'm seeing "The powered woofers work with movies and TV, but not when I listen to stereo sources".

Go into Setup, Manual Setup, select Speakers and set the mains to Large. If the others aren't large, don't set them to Large. Press Return and look for Bass settings. You may see that it's set to LFE but if you highlight it and click Right, it may change to LFE + Main. Exit and you should have bass with all sources.
