Von Schweikert VR4 jr. wiring question

Recently powered up a pair of VR4 jr's and so far I'm very impressed.
I needed spkr. cable so I ordered a 12 ft. biwire of Goertz MI2 that also sound pretty good.
Here's were I need your feedback:
I'm biwiring/connecting with the four post on the woofer cabinet and using the supplied data link for the tweeter/midrange cabinet connection to the woofer cabinet.
Is this the right way to biwire these speakers?
Is there a better way?
How are you jr owners doing it?
As always, thanks for your time and feedback.

I have mine bi-wired too but am running to pairs of cables, one pair to the top module and one to the bottom with the data cable removed of course (AQ Montblanc-Bottom & AQ CV-6 Top). I can't imagine any other way to avoid using either the data cable or a long jumper between the modules. I talked to a guy who split a single run of Kimber 8tc to go to the top/bottom modules but, I'm not comfortable doing that.

I'm about to acquire an unusual Geortz cable that addresses this problem.

What I am having built is a single run from the amp to a set of spades that shares a connection with a 'tail' that will then connect to the lower cabinet. There are 3 pairs of spades involved, rather than 4, as the jumper and main cable will share the spades connected at the M/T module.
