■ 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.

or cables on the speaker. Refer to the speakers' instruction
manuals for more information.
