SINGLE WIRE CONNECTION
Please take note of the jumper clips installed
under the binding posts. These clips attach the
high-frequency and low-frequency sections of the
crossover together. Leaving these in place, con-
nect the (+) wire from your amplifier to either red
(+)binding post and the (–) wire from your ampli-
fier to either black (–) binding post (Fig. 1).

WARNING! Only after jumper
clips are removed may you connect
individual runs of speaker cable
from your amplifiers to the high-fre-
quency and low-frequency signal input binding
posts. Damage will occur to your amplifiers if
the jumper clips are not removed.

crossover to the amplifier.
To bi-wire you must first loosen the binding posts
and remove the jumper clips. Connect one set of
wires to the upper set of binding posts which con-
nect to the high-frequency drivers. Then connect
a second set of wires to the lower binding posts
which connect to the low-frequency drivers. Next,
connect both sets of wires to the appropriate termi-
nals on your amplifier. Please take care to connect
both (+) wires to the (+) amplifier terminals and both
(–) wires to the (–) amplifier terminals. This is known
as a parallel connection (Fig. 2).

PASSIVE BI-AMPLIFICATION
For those that desire ultimate performance, these
speakers may be passively bi-amplified using the
existing internal passive crossover elements.
