Yes, they should have straps unless you are bi-amping.

A strap is just a beefy conductor, so short speaker cables can be used to connect between them. 

You can pick either set once the jumpers are in place.

So red to red, black to black.

Don't short the red and black.  That is, do not allow a conductor to touch both at the same time.
