Wiring
SingleWiring
Single wiring is acheived by using a single set of cables to the terminals on the back of the speaker. Internally the
speaker crossover guides the frequencies to the appropriate driver/tweeter - low frequencies to the bass drivers, mid
frequencies to the mid/bass drivers and high frequencies to the tweeter.
It is perfectly acceptable to connect to the HF or LF terminals, or to split LF/HF (experimentation is advisable to
achieve the preferred results).
NOTE: When using this method you must kEEP the terminal links in place.
Bi-Wiring
Bi-wiring is accomplished by connecting separate pairs of speaker cables to the terminals on the loudspeaker from
a single pair of connections on the amplifier. In the case of the Platinum II Series, the LF terminals connect to the
bass driver(s) and the HF terminals connect to the tweeter (in 2-way loudspeakers), or the mid and tweeter in 2.5 and
3-way speakers.
NOTE: When using this method the terminal links MUST be removed.
