Pivoting Woofer
The VP65R SST/SUR, and VP65S SST/SUR models have a 
pivoting woofer assembly. This allows you to direct sound toward
or away from the listening area, depending on how the speakers
are being used: 
• For SST models, pivoting the woofer towards the listening 
position will maximize the speaker’s clarity and definition.
• For SUR models, you can create a more diffuse, spacious 
surround effect by aiming the woofers towards a wall or 
window, away from the listeners.
