For bipole, the drivers on opposite sides of the speaker are connected in phase, for dipole the drivers are connected out of phase. Some speakers use dipole setting above 100Hz and the crossover reverses the phase below 100 to make them bipoles for better bass.
The goal is a diffused or wide sound field.Graham -
Not a stupid question at all. This will explain it and show you pictures:
