    Manual says to plug the tops in the Output. Which makes sense I was just asking for a better well around knowledge of what each meant.

    I'd expect that the manual would tell you that, but maybe not. I know that they don't tell you how to place your subs properly, but you'd think they'd at least explain what the jacks and knobs are all for.

    Not under the mains, and not split to either side. Cluster them together facing the nearest wall from about a foot away.

    Most do. Why? Because they saw someone else do it that way. And why did he do it that way? Because he saw someone else do it that way, etc., etc.,etc., ad infinitum, for the last 50 years. It doesn't help when manufacturers picture them that way, and even put pole sockets in the subs to do it that way. And why do they? Because users think that's how it should be done that's what they want to buy, and manufacturers aren't going to lose sales by telling them otherwise. Engineers cringe at the entire scenario, but engineers don't run speaker companies, bean counters do,
