6 Powered Subwoofer
For 5.1-Channel System
This is a 5.1-channel system that is the basic surround system.
Front speakers output front stereo sound and a center speaker outputs center
sound such as dialogs and vocals. Surround speakers create back sound
field. Powered subwoofer reproduces bass sounds and creates rich sound
field. The front speakers should be positioned at ear height, while the
surround speakers should be positioned just above ear height. Center
speaker should be set up facing the listening position. Place the powered
subwoofer towards the front. Placing it between the center speaker and a front
speaker gives you a natural sound even when playing music.
0
The front speakers, center speaker, and surround speakers are counted as
5 channels, and the powered subwoofer is counted as 0.1 of a channel,
giving us the name 5.1ch system.

switch the same audio to output from
