bi-wire and bi-amp connections. Read the following explanations and connect in the suitable method.

I. Passive Connecting Method

The passive method requires one amplifier and one set of wires. Connections are made to either the upper terminals or the lower terminals . Do not remove the shorting straps.

II. Bi-Wire Connecting Method

The bi-wire connection method requires one amplifier and two sets of speaker wires. By removing the shorting straps, connections may be made to the individual network sections using four connectors, high frequency wires to the upper terminals and low frequency wires to the lower terminals.

III. Bi-Amp Connecting Method

The bi-amp connection method requires two amplifiers, one for the low frequency and one for the high frequency unit, and a crossover network. By removing the shorting straps, connections may be made in the following way. Wires from the high frequency amplifier are connected to the upper terminals, and wires from the low frequency amplifiers are connected to the lower terminals.
