bi wiring, do i have it wrong

goldendomer

just got a new pair of polk tower rti150's. these speakers have 4 post . i read all the threads and bi wired my speakers. I made a jumper out of the wire and connectors. my question is , is bi wiring taking 2 sets of wires,wrapping the positives and negatives together and shoving it in the speaker connections of your receiver, then taking the other end of those wires and connecting both negative and positives to the lower post then connecting the top post with jumpers or taking the two sets from the back of your receiver and connecting one set to the lower post and one set to the upper post or shoulkd i have 4 sets of wires to my stereo and two sets each to the lower and upper post?what is the differenc in bi amping and bi wiring. these speakers did not come with factory jumpers. open box from circuit city.

This might help, I copied it from the RTi150 manual. Bi-amp on top, bi-wire on the bottom.

thanks frank, did not get a manual. is that second pic two sets of wires from back then split at speaker, one + and one - at each pole or four wires out of amp and two each + and - to each speaker pole. thanks

Two Positive and two negative from the amp/receiver to the speaker. This might help also.
