Two way speakers

[TommyG58]

I purchased (4) BIC MSR6D two-way speakers to replace some ceiling speakers in my house. The speakers have two sets of inputs per speaker. I have one set of wires at each speaker location. Two of the speakers are right channel and two are left channel. Do I need to jumper the two inputs together or do I only use one input? I only use these speakers for audio sound.

the two inputs are for left and right input from your amp.wired like this they are kind of like two speakers,a left and a right.since you have four i take it you will not be using them like that so i would jumper the inputs to get both mid range voice coils to work.

Just in case you didn't know or people are wondering what you are talking about: these speakers are designed to give stereo output from 1 speaker, hence the two tweeters.

Now you could for example hook one up for left and hook the other up for right using the appropriate terminals.But if you plan and linking them together, for example, running speaker wire from the right terminals to another speakers right terminals, you need to research running speakers in parallel. You would need an amp/integrated amp or receiver that can handle that.

Since you have only one set of wires per side like described above, you run one the left on the left speaker and one for the right speaker using the appropriate terminals.
