■About Bi-Wire Connection
This speaker system is capable of bi-wire connection. To connect
the speaker to the output terminals of the amplifier (or receiver),
two pairs of cables for each of mid-range/woofer and tweeter used
instead of standard connections.
This type of connection decreases the modulation distortion
caused by electric resistance of the cables and driving current of
the speakers.
Consequently, purer sound quality can be expected.
To utilize bi-wire connection, remove the short bars from the
terminals first, and then connect the mid-range/woofer and tweeter
to the amplifier separately using two pairs of cables.
