Your AU620/AU820 comes from the factory ready for conventional (mono) 

use.  This  means  a  single  speaker  will  handle  a  single  channel  of 

information, such as what is required for surround channel use.

Using two AU620 or AU820 speakers for 

stereo (conventional / surround use)

If  you  are  going  to  use  your  AU620/AU820 

speaker for surround channel duties, leave the 

jumpers  in  the  configuration  (see  drawing  16). 

The  AU620  and  AU820  speakers  feature  two 

sets  of  push-to-connect  terminals.  You  may 

connect  the  speaker  wires  to  either  set  of 

terminals  but  it  is  essential  that  the  correct 

polarity  of  the  connections  to  your  amplifier  is 

maintained.

If you want to use the AU620 and AU820 as a 

single-point stereo speaker (where the left and 

right  channels  are  handled  by  the  single  unit), 

then  move  the  jumpers  to  the  position  shown 

left.  Set  the  Bipole/Dipole  switch  to  the  Bipole 

position  so  the  tweeter  is  in  phase  with  the 

woofer. 
Connect  the  speaker  wires  for  one  channel  to 

one  set  of  terminals,  and  the  speaker  wire  for 

the other channel to the other set to terminals. 
If the sound form the speaker lacks definition, it 

is  likely  the  polarity  is  incorrect.  It  does  not 

matter  which  speaker  terminals  are  connected 

to the left or right channel on your amplifier, but 

correct  polarity  is  critical  (see  drawing  18  and 

19).
