    Connecting Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 - Manual is wrong?

    Thanks all for your replies, I've decided to use a jumper and single-wire it. After doing more research I've found that electrically, it shouldn't matter whether the wire terminates at HF or LF (because the jumper will carry the signal to either HF or LF). But some posts in audiophile websites...

    Connecting Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 - Manual is wrong?

    I did haha I tried both ways as shown in post 10 and they both work. But there is a sinking feeling that one of the configuration is not the proper way. I have 2 lengths of wires to connect a speaker to an AVR, and each length of wire is made up on 2 different 'strands', one being a positive...

    Connecting Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 - Manual is wrong?

    Thanks again for your help. I'm pretty sure the point of my confusion is a different issue. I get that both reds go to the single red and both blacks to the single black. But there are 2 different ways that can be done. The manual is ambiguous in that it doesnt show which 2 poles (- and +) of...

    Connecting Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 - Manual is wrong?

    please see this gallery for photos of the two different configurations I uploaded. http://postimage.org/gallery/awg05wny/2a837cf3/ "Either I connect each of the 2 wires so that one wire goes to HF(+) / HF(-) and the other to LF(+) / LF(-)" http://postimage.org/image/9e6rhg3tp/ or "I connect each...

    Connecting Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 - Manual is wrong?

    Yup, that's how I have my "parallel bi-wire" set up right now where both reds on the speakers are going to a single red on the AVR and same for the black. But the thing is, the red/black terminals can be matched in two different ways. Either HF(+) / HF (-) or HF(+) Please see these two pics for...

    Connecting Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 - Manual is wrong?

    that seems like a good alternative if I cant figure out how to bi-wire this properly. I have 4 speaker wires so I would ideally like to bi-wire them, the manual suggests it would give a clearer sound as well. On the receiver-side, the setup for bi-wiring is complete. The 2 (+) ends of 2 wires...

    Connecting Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 - Manual is wrong?

    Bi-wiring because the plate between binding posts are lost :( I'm using a Pioneer VSX D510 edit: btw, I tried both configurations (in the original post) and they both produce sounds, but I want to connect them the proper way

    Connecting Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 - Manual is wrong?

    hi schan thanks for your reply. Im guessing the 'jumpers' are the metal plates which connected the binding posts? I am bi-wiring these speakers so I have taken them off.... This is becoming more confusing then it should!

    Connecting Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 - Manual is wrong?

    IMAG0174.jpg (306k. jpg file) Hi, and thanks for any help you can give me in bi-wiring my Wharfedale Crystal 2.40 front loudspeakers to my receiver. A manual for the speakers I found on the net suggests that I need to connect the wires from the receiver to the binding posts on the opposite ends...
