■Bi-wire connection

Bi-wire connection separates the woofer from the combined midrange and tweeter section. A bi-wire compatible speaker has four binding post terminals. These two sets of terminals allow the speaker to be split into two independent sections. With these connections, the mid and high frequency drivers are connected to one set of terminals and the low frequency driver to another set of terminals.

When making bi-wire connections, set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch to HIGH or LOW depending on the impedance of your speakers:

6 Ω or higher: HIGH

4 Ω or higher: LOW

See page 4 for more information about the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch.

Note
