Jumper Question

Thanks Dave for the response. I just got my jumpers in the mail today so I,ll be setting the speakers up tomorrow. A great way to spend a quiet Sunday. Again thanks, Dave

Not all jumped speakers sound better with the speaker wires on the highs. Mine sound better (fuller) on the lows. It's Sunday, so fool around. I'm told some people even do one lead on each (treating each speaker the same), tho I've never tried it.

Hi. I hooked the jumpers ++ and -- and connected the speaker cables to low terminals and then to the hi terminals. In both cases the front and rear tweeters in both speakers did not fire. I,m using anti cables, and I used the anti cable jumpers with spades (that were not useful here), and made a set out of old speaker wire. I,m assuming I,m doing something wrong because both speakers tweeters are not working correctly thru my wiring. The only other thing is that I have the connection reversed due to phase. The cable itself is connected to the post thru a loop and tightened. What does it sound like I,m doing wrong. Thanks much. Dave

I'm guessing that the switch is for the rear tweeter.....but the jumpers should go like this:

Dave, yes that,s the way I have my jumpers. I,m thinking maybe the crossovers or something else were fried or damaged somewhere along the way. I think they sat for quite awhile. What so do you think? If, needed you think a few hundred would be worth the investment if needed? again, thanks. Dave
