Proper Connection Method for Four-Terminal Columns with Onkyo Receiver

Best answers LABEL_AI_GENERATED

How do I connect four-terminal speakers to an Onkyo receiver safely?

Connect them normally by using only one pair of terminals on each speaker, with red to red and black to black; the metal jumpers between the upper and lower terminals must stay in place [#16374796] If you want bi-amping, remove the jumpers, connect the lower speaker terminals to the receiver’s Front outputs and the upper terminals to the Surround Back outputs, then enable bi-amp mode in the receiver menu [#16374796] Another reply suggests using a 2.5 mm two-core cable from Front L and Front R to the upper left and upper right terminals, then calibrating the receiver afterward [#16382959]

    Imagine that e.g. the upper pair of terminals does not exist, can you still do it?

    You can see that the plugs in the speakers are connected black are connected together with the metal plate and the red ones are the same, i.e. 1 cable under the black 2 under the red in the speakers, and in the receiver for those you want to have the speakers connected to.

    If you only use the 5.1 system then you can connect the speakers in bi amping :)

    Someone can draw it for me on some diagram
    Why e.g. Two red and one black?
    I've always had one pair of clamps next to the speakers, there are two more ones
    Only in Technics there were four but because of the tube

    Buddy, but you want to connect traditionally or in bi amping.

    If traditionally you connect cables to the upper or lower terminals, there is no rule, only plus plus and minus minus.
    The jumpers that connect the terminals must stay.

    If you want in bi amping then you have to pull out the plates.
    The lower terminals in the column are connected to the front in the amp, and the upper terminals are connected to the Surround Back in the amp, then enter the ampli menu and select from the column you have connected in bi amp.

    It wasn't a stupid question.
    A lot of people ask about it, so you don't have to be ashamed.
    It's better to ask than cry afterwards.

    Hello, intenso :)
    Do you remember me hehe?
    I returned to Denon again, but to 1520 AE :) well, unfortunately, after comparing Pioneer A-30 with Denon PMA 720 AE Pionek softened :(
    I have a relevant question for CB about this :)

    Added after 5 [minutes]:

    Egg19121982 - Connect the receiver with a 2.5mm two-core cable
    from the Front L exit under the upper left column terminals - / +.
    from the Front R output to the upper right-side terminals - / +.
    After connecting, calibrate the receiver.
    Regards.

    Pioneer slipped away compared to 720 AE?
    Because they both failed 1520 Ae I know that.

    Yes Pioneer compared to the Denon PMA 720 AE softened hm strange it but Pionek had more watts but also a weak engine.
    I can't explain why :)
    I wonder if not for each amplifier is adapted to drive 6 Ohm speakers?

    Denon No No gives beautiful equipment after Band and it is really specific, that's why I decided to buy a bigger block :)
    it's a pity that it has poor details, I mean these knobs and LEDs :(

    For me Pionek has a weak, impulse power supply.

    I know that 1520 ae is great because I have it myself.

    Buddy, if the amplifier supports 4-16 ohm, probably between 4 and 16 is somewhere six :)

    Right :) he he nothing else I can do but buy columns. 8 Ohm I wonder if it can handle Clips R-28F, how do you think the boost will be overdriven?

    Klipsch does not have 8 ohm although it is so on a sticker.

    Okay, let it be you, I don't know what your gait is in this subject, but I, as an ordinary person who does not deal with such things, I know that if the Column is 8 Ohm it must be :)
    otherwise it would be a scam :)

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the proper connection method for four-terminal speakers to an Onkyo receiver. Users clarify that when connecting traditionally, the upper or lower terminals can be used, ensuring that the jumpers remain in place. For bi-amping, the jumpers must be removed, with the lower terminals connected to the front outputs and the upper terminals to the surround back outputs of the receiver. The importance of maintaining correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative) is emphasized to avoid damaging the equipment. Users also share experiences with different brands and models, discussing the performance of Denon and Pioneer amplifiers in comparison to the Onkyo receiver.
