Can anyone tell me the orientation of the inputs when you put the DSW Sub in Front Firing Mode.

Are the inputs on the bottom, L, R, or Rear, if your facing the speaker cone that is firing forward?

Thanks,

Jason

    When you look at the pics on the Polk web site, it looks like the amp, inputs etc will be facing the floor.
    My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    Bottom.

    This is just an EXAMPLE of what you might want to use as a connection adapter, if setup as front firing.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Thanks everyone. That was the conclusion I was coming to as well by looking at the documentation. I was hoping the documentation was wrong. Seems like they could have planned that better.

    The configuration was for folks that would typically place the subwoofer in a cabinet, so I'm not sure what would have been a better idea. What exactly could have been planned better? I agree that an angle adapter makes things better but aside from that.....
