Looking at an Mit avt single cable for my polk lsic center. The cable (mit avt bw3) is biwire. I dont want to biamp my speaker, so if I just connect all four wires into their respective binding post all should be okay, right? I wont experience sound quality, or other ill effects of using this cable?

    Just be sure that you remove the jumper between the two pairs of binding posts.

    It won't hurt anything to run them with the jumpers in place, but if you have all the holes filled you should remove them.

    Do the Mit avt biwire speakers have an internal crossover or something in that "box" attached to each cable. I think that I am misunderstanding whats in the "boxes". Thnks.

    it is not a crossover in the box. If you speakers are bi wire capible, the crossover is in the speaker itself. The jumper just joins the highs and lows to the internal crossover.
