I just finished construction on my living room and need to set up my speakers. I have four JBL SP6CSII, which are two way speakers. I want to set each speaker on a single channel. What is the easiest way to do this? I am newer to speaker installation so any help or information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Do the speakers have two separate connections (4 post, 2 red, 2 black)? Maybe I'm confused, but i would assume that you could run 4 speaker wires 1 set to each speaker?. I have to do ceiling mounted speakers for my rear surrounds (due to living room layout (I'm using the polk R60i's) .

It appears like they should have two sets of binding posts.  If you want each speaker to be one channel only, just run a single speaker wire to each one – just like a normal speaker.
