Apogee Scintillas and how to change from 4 to 1 oh

I just bought a pair of Apogee Scintilla's a 1 / 4 ohm . Not sure how to hook up for either 1 or 4 ohm. The manual seems to be missing how to switch from one to the other. Is it moving the wires on the binding posts-internally or is it putting a jumper across etc. the manual doesn't show what wires are to which binding posts internally that needs to be changed if that is the case.
I am using a Sunfire signature amp with bi wiring if I wish..or just with the normal pair of outputs with a jumper wire between the sets of binding posts per speaker??

Hello there,

you need to rewire them internally. There is no jumper for that externally. The absolute best resource is Graz in Australia from Apogee Acoustics. (www.apogeeacoustics.com). You can find a link to the crossover schematic here

Its best to send him an e.mail he can give very good instructions.

Good luck

PS: Its one of the best speaker speakers ever made. Enjoy it and don't fry your amp :-)
