No matter how many speakers you use, a powered sub- woofer is recommended for a really powerful and solid bass.

Connecting a Powered Subwoofer

Using a suitable cable, connect the AV receiver’s PRE OUT SUBWOOFER to the input on your powered sub- woofer. If your subwoofer is unpowered and you’re using an external amplifier, connect the PRE OUT SUB- WOOFER to the amp’s input.

Using Dipole Speakers

You can use dipole speakers for the surround left and right 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 left and right dipole speakers should be positioned so that their arrows point toward the TV/screen.
