Emotiva Airmotiv E2 Bipole/ Dipole Surround Speaker

If you’ve ever wished you could experiment with different types of surround speakers without having to physically move different speakers in and out of position, your prayers have been answered—and very cleverly, we might add—by the audio gurus at Emotiva. Flip the Switch: You can configure the Airmotiv E2 surround speaker as a forwardor rear-oriented dipole or a direct-radiating bipole. All you have to do is flip one (or both) of the small switches on its rear panel. Each switch inverts the phase of one of the speaker’s 1.25-inch folded ribbon tweeters relative to the 5.25-inch woofer.

The E2 is finished in satin black lacquer with an easy-to-remove magnetic grille and includes a heavy-duty steel bracket for wall mounting.

Price: $459/pair
