System channel configurationiMaker-stated channel layout of the exact package, such as 5.1.2. This can include virtual channels. It is not a count of physical drivers. Optional speakers do not count.

That is 5 channels, 1 subwoofer and 2 height channels. Reviewers and US retailers also state 5.1.2. Maker pages and the guide do not print the figure for the full package.

Physical drivers in the packageiCount of physical active speaker drivers across the supplied bar, subwoofer and rear speakers. Passive radiators, microphones and virtual channels do not count. A coaxial driver, such as KEF Uni-Q, counts once, as makers count it.

Singular surround speaker transducer line publishes two racetrack plus one 50 mm full-range plus one 75 mm upward driver per enclosure. Maker six upward drivers across package match four main plus one each rear. Crutchfield omits the 50 mm rear driver, so its incomplete description does not override maker inventory.

Up-firing drivers in the packageiPhysical active drivers explicitly firing upwards across the supplied package. Virtual height channels and passive radiators do not count. A driver that fires upwards only when the bar is wall mounted is not counted.
