Biamp jumpers missing. Alternative? Help!

[timmay8612]

I just bought some used Paradigm Monitor 7 floorstanders. I went to wire them up, and as somebody helped me understand, in order to run them in a non-bi-amped configuration, they provide little jumper shims to connect the speaker terminals.

Well I wired up one speaker just fine, but the other speaker is missing these jumpers! Is there a way around this? Say, connect each terminal to each other via regular speaker wire in addition to running wire from the amp?

Yes, just cut a short piece of wire and run it between the terminals. It works just as well as any jumper.

Sorry, it would have been faster but I was pouring a new scotch.

Yes, of course, we are on the clock here and the record makes it into that record book

New? Don't you like it aged?

I know I prefer mine that way . On a side note, first experience with a speaker that has binding posts... Man thats nice!
