I am trying to Bi-amp my front RTi8's using SR707. I can use Surround Back/Zone2 outputs from SR707 to bi-amp RTi8s. The SR707 manual specifies to connect Surround Back/Zone2 terminals to spekears Tweater(high) terminals while Front L/R terminals to be connected to spekars Woofer(low) terminals.

On my Polk RTi8 there is no markings on which terminals connect to tweeter Vs which terminals connect to Woofer. Can somebody help me with this? Is there a standard followed on RTi8's (like top two posts connect to tweeter while bottom two posts connect to Woofer OR viceversa ?)

TIA

    usually the top is for the highs and bottom posts for the lows, don't forget to remove the metal jumper plate

    Thanks.. Yep, I removed the metal plate. It is kind of odd that Polk does not label them neither in the manual not on the speakers

    Just a note - using an Onkyo in this config would be better off in a 2 channel mode, as the power supply is less taxed.
