Single wiring is the most conventional connection.

bare wire to link the terminal.
2. Just connect one pair of terminals to the amplifier.
Always make sure the connection consistency of
terminal polarity.
There are 2 pairs of binding posts on the rear of TP800F so you can have several connected options.
Bi-wiring can improve the low-level details and overall
transparency.
1.Remove the terminal links from the speakers.
2.Connect one set of speaker wires to the upper
terminals on speaker and one set to the lower
terminals on speaker. Connect them independently to
the amplifier output.
Bi-amping allows you to use two amplifiers for greater
dynamics.
1.Remove the terminal links from the speakers.
2.Connect the upper set terminals on speaker to one
amplifier output and follow the same principle to do the
lower set terminals on speaker. We recommend you to
use identical amplifiers and identical gains.

speakers, and select “large” for floor standing speakers.

sound eld by adding surround speakers into the ceilings.

4.The ceiling height is ideal between 94” to 106” for a best audio performance.
1.The front speakers should always be kept at the same horizontal level with the audience ear height, if not,
then they should be kept their height difference at least within 24”. This is because man’s ear is more sensitive
to horizontal position rather than vertical position.

3.For surround speakers, the best height is above 26” from listener's ears which is generally 70”to 80”above
the ground.
