Bi-Wire Connection
Bi-wiring
In bi-wiring, each loudspeaker has two pairs of connectors and two cables
are run from the same amplifier output to the speaker cabinet – one for
the high frequency or tweeter driver and one for the low frequency driver
(through two separated crossover filters). The purported advantage of this
split is that it reduces magnetic interaction in the cable, resulting in a better
soundstage.
How to connect speakers in the bi-wire mode:
• Ensure that your system is powered OFF.
• Remove the bi-wire bridges from each speaker (this separates the low
pass filter & high pass filter crossovers).
• Connect each amplifier channel to its respective speaker section as
shown.

Take care to maintain the correct polarity when connecting (+ or RED) to (+ or RED) and (- or BLACK) to (- or BLACK).
Before attempting the connection make sure that your amplifier’s speaker wire connectors will accept a second set of
cables and that the equipment is turned OFF while you make the connections.
