Bi-wiring?

A friend gave me a pair of meadowlark kestrels hotrods. There are 4 post on back of the speakers, 2 for tweeters, 2 for bass woofers. How is bi-wiring done? I have them piggybacked from +tweeter to +bass, -tweeter to -bass. Any harm in wiring them like this? If so, how exactly does one bi-wire? Thanks in advance!

you have a wonderful friend !,,,

great speakers, like most made better by biwiring

you can read about the theory, application etc or just listen.

for best effect get the treble wires 4” away from the bass. This is called an external biwire.

have fun

enjoy the music

Thank you all for your responses. Another question, though- how would bi-wiring look on the amp side?

My bi-wiring with used good cable was a success... With a costly cables it is not worth the subtle upgrading effect... But with good used cable at low cost it is very interesting little upgrade...
