Hello folks!
Been years since I've posted here--
But I have been enjoying my Maggie 3.6's for ALL that time--and they still sound great!
However--my memory isn't as sharp as it may have been--
The speakers have been bi-wired for all that time--and I forgot how I need to "attach" non-bi-wired cables.
I currently use the factory crossovers attached to the panels (and anticipate continuing to do so)
Online information I've found shows jumpers needed for both sets of inputs from the bi-wire when using only single feed input.
However-I have only one pair of factory jumpers--and they are NOT in the single feed inputs.
So--my questions -
Do I need to jump those Bi-Wire inputs at all?
See image attached for current setup-
Any input appreciated !

Do NOT use those crappy steel jumpers that Magnepan supplies. Get some quality 12 or 10 gauge SOLID jumpers. Anticables makes such things at reasonable prices.

I think you are forgetting that there is more steel in there than the jumpers... No, just unlock the lugs inside the box. Put the lugs inside the yellow circle together with the lugs in the red circle. No jumpers needed! Money spent too.

Yes, you'll need two sets of jumpers for each x-over box.Manual here:

Thanks!
I thought so--but can't imagine I disposed of the other two jumpers--especially since I do have the two....
I know i can make something--maybe even use the resistor one visible on top of the crossover--
But thought I'd stick my toe back into the forum and ask--
This is what it looks like. outside and inside. Maybe you can just some of the lugs inside to the right spot, no need for jumpers or cables. You can even solder the connections in there.
