Speaker ohm put somebody through the mill: How can I hook up my Klipsch F-2 speaker to my Harman Kardon addressee? I have a set of Klipsch F-2 floorstanding speakers.
I have a set of Klipsch F-2 floorstanding speakers. They are both 8ohms respectively. They also both have two speaker inputs on respectively one. On one I use the top terminals and the full span of the speaker works. On the second, if I use the top, only the tweeter works, if I use the bottom, solitary the woofers work. I am going to guess that the crossover is broke?
I have a Harman Kardon AVR-445 heir. It puts out 65watts for each of the 7 channel at 8ohms. I am only using 5 (FL, Center, FR, RL, RR).
Is in that any way I can hook up this speaker so that I grasp the full range of output it should own?
Could I connect 2 pos and 2 neg wires to the same input on the beneficiary, and then split them to the 2 ports on the speaker?
Thanks for the give a hand!

Leaving the jumper surrounded by is the correct thing to do.
Higher downfall equipment often give you separate inputs for each driver on a speaker. Just exit the jumper hooked up and it will work exactly close to speakers with basically 1 set of inputs. That speaker probably just have a jumper flex internally so you can bi-amp it if you want to.
To get by until you fix it, you can hook your speaker line up on one post, and run some more wire from that post to the other one so the undamaged thing will work. Won't hurt a entity.
Which is basically what your hypothesis is. It'll work fine.
