Wiring on Monitor10s ???

Posts: 26
I did a search here and could not find the specifics on what I'm needing to know. I was inside my 10's this morning moving dampening material around and bi passing the weak polyswitch on XO and noticed the wiring on the 6503 drivers to be arranged as such.
2 black and 2 white wires from the XO going to the driver on the right (when facing baffle) and 1 black and 1 white wire from XO going to the driver on the left. It was the same in the other cabinet. Is this correct?
These have the sl2000 tweets. Are these 10B's or some variation ? I thought for a second that these might be directional models (if such a thing exists) but both drivers in each cabinet are 6503. The wiring just threw me because I expected them to be jumpered from driver to driver. The serial #'s are within 8 digits.
Any thoughts or am I just imagining things.
Help appreciated.

Welded? You mean JB Weld? I use Loctite Power Grab, not JB Weld. The Woofer Magnets need to be secured, not the Tweeters.Home Theater/2 Channel:

There should be one white and one black wire coming from the crossover, to the 1st woofer, and continuing on to the second woofer. They're wired in parallel.
The other black and white wires coming from the crossover are for the tweeter.Home Theater/2 Channel:

That's what I thought I would see. It is wired exactly as I described in my post. Any other ideas.?
Thanks for your input. -
My bad... must have seen things different than what was really there. They are jumpered. These are the 10b's ? Ialso welded magnets on drivers. Do the tweet magnets need welded also?
Thanks alot. -
Thanks so very much.
