Wiring

Single Wiring

Single wiring is achieved via a single set of cables to the terminals on the back of the loudspeaker. Internally
the loudspeaker 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 top, bottom terminals or even diagonally (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 Gold Series, the bottom
terminals connect to the bass driver(s) and the top terminals connect to the tweeter in 2 way loudspeakers,
or the mid and tweeter in 2.5 and 3 way loudspeakers.
NOTE: When using this method the terminal links MUST be removed.

Bi-Amping

Bi-amping is the same as bi-wiring except you are introducing a second amplifier into the equation.
In order to bi-amp you must connect a set of speaker cables to the top terminals on the loudspeaker from
one amplifier and another set of speaker cables to the bottom terminals from the second amplifier.
NOTE: When wiring this method the terminal links MUST be removed.
