Using Dipole Speakers

You can use dipole speakers for the surround and surround
back speakers. Dipole speakers output the same sound in two
directions.
Dipole speakers typically have an arrow printed on them to
indicate how they should be positioned. The surround dipole
speakers should be positioned so that their arrows point
toward the TV/screen, while the surround back dipole speak-
ers should be positioned so that their arrows point toward
each other, as shown.

Connecting a Powered Subwoofer

Using a suitable cable, connect the AV receiver’s
SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jack to an input on
your powered subwoofer, as shown. If your sub-
woofer is unpowered and you’re using an external
amplifier, connect the SUBWOOFER PRE OUT
jack to an input on the amp.
You can connect the powered subwoofer with two
SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jacks respectively.
The same signal is output from each jack.
