Know before you buy
The top of the speaker cabinet houses a dedicated upward-firing driver. This driver bounces sound off your ceiling to create an overhead, three-dimensional audio effect without requiring separate ceiling-mounted speakers.
Yes, these are passive speakers, meaning they do not have built-in amplification. You will need to connect them to an external AV receiver or power amplifier to drive the audio.
While they provide a powerful, room-filling sound, their dual 8-inch woofers move a significant amount of air. They are best suited for medium-to-large living spaces where they have enough room to breathe and perform optimally.
Yes, you can use them as traditional floorstanding speakers. The Atmos elevation channel is wired separately, so you can choose not to connect those terminals if you are not yet ready to utilize a Dolby Atmos setup.
To take full advantage of the integrated elevation speakers, you need an AV receiver that supports Dolby Atmos processing and has enough channels to power both the main floor speakers and the height channels.
Because these speakers feature a rear-firing Tractrix port, it is recommended to place them at least 6 to 12 inches away from the wall to prevent the bass from sounding muddy or boomy.
