I know this is against the rules, please let it slip just once! home audio wiring -- posted image.
I have a HOME audio question, it's very simple, I just need some advice.
Thanks in advanced for the help.
These are my speakers,

I wanted to know how to connect the woofers because each speaker has two separate terminals because they are bi-ampable. Do I just jump the connections?
All I have a home theater receiver. Should I use the extra channels to give the woofers power?

Yes, jump the speaker terminals with a short length of speaker wire and connect your main speaker wires to either set of terminals.  Use the front left and right speaker inputs on your receiver.  I don't believe that bi-amping is appropriate for this loudspeaker although I know that it is capable of it.  Bi-ampable loudspeakers are a fashion statement now but most people go the bridged route, usually using an impressive looking gold connector bar.  It, too, is a fashion statement and gives no advantage over normal speaker wire.
Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
