# Can I use bipolar speakers as my main speakers?

Any speaker can be used as your front left and right speakers. That being said, not all speakers are designed for use as front speakers.

Bipolar speakers are designed to be used as side or rear speakers to provide ambiance in a surround setup. While they can be used as main speakers, they may not perform as well in the role as a bookshelf or floor-standing speaker.
