As I understand these speakers are made to bounce off ceiling when pointed up. or up close to ceiling. I believe they can be used as regular speakers too. I have mine connected to the "height" terminals and not the "surround" With Atmos there are right and left "surround that are to be about 4' off floor pointed at the listener. The "height speakers (which these speakers are made for) as to be pointed at ceiling at height 4-6 ft off floor or mounted high on wall close to ceiling to give you the sound from above. I believe these speakers are designed for the reflection off ceiling. From Sony "The compact SS-CSE speaker can sit on top of your existing speakers for an even more immersive surround experience. Unlike conventional speakers, they are designed specifically to reflect sound off your ceiling for sound that is truly all-encompassing. Wall-mounted front high for a cinematic experience, or Wall-mounted front high for a cinematic experience. Upgrade to a pro-theater setup by mounting the discreet SS-CSE speakers on your wall in different positions, such as front high above your TV. The result is more effective multi-dimensional, Dolby Atmos sound that's serious about home entertainment. Hope this helps,
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They need to be connected to the height channels on your receiver, which would be the "back" channels. Then you need to go through your receivers speaker setup and designate them as ceiling/height speakers.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi iTrocki, you can use the surround back/height speaker terminal. Make sure that the receiver supports 6-ohm speakers. You also need to configure or select the speaker pattern on the settings of your receiver. ~Ralph
