Hi,

I wired my receiver's front A output to the lower two terminals and receiver's front B output to the top two terminals. It sounded odd. Of course I removed the jumper plates.

Then I put back to the old configuration.

Did I spoil my speakers? I think it has necessary crossover to handle any input as long as it is not shorted.

Any one tried this way.

Thanks.

    I researched little on this, Looked into crossover diagram for M70.

    The top two terminals connected to ONLY tweeter thru cross over.

    the bottom two terminals connected to the remaining four 6.5 inch drivers.

    So theoretically no harm in this setup, but dont know any one tried this.

    What you have done sounds like Bi-Wiring rather than Bi-Amping.

    Bi-Wiring = little to no performance gain
    Bi-Amping = massive improvement with the sound

    Just what I've read. Enlighten me if i'm wrong.
