SOURCE DIRECT and when to use it?

Since I can't hear difference with the SOURCE-DIRECT button ON and OFF I ask you good people what is the use of it? Is it for players connected digitally or WHAT else? Thanks Marko stifa@eunet.yu

I did this with my SR-7300 and an average Yamaha cd changer and it made a world of difference soundwise - especially using the source direct mode.
