In the photo there are two sets of speaker wire connections on the back. What is the purpose of having two sets of connections?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-wiringI don't think bi-wiring has been proven to add any fidelity to the actualy speaker output, but some higher end speakers offer the option because some customers want to use this method.

The manual states "Dual binding posts allow bi-amp or bi-wire connections, for the ultimate in customized high performance audio". I just used the lower set on each speaker and they sound fantastic. Go to http://www.audioholics.com/frequent-questions/the-difference-between-biamping-vs-biwiring for an explanation of the two options.

The two connections is to power the woofer and tweeter separately and supposedly offer better sound.

There are two optical audio inputs, so that you can switch between two input devices. The remote has push buttons to select input source 1 or 2.

You connect the left speaker (only) to power and the signal source. The right and left speaker are connected by speaker wire.

The back port is an amp that powers the speaker, the front port is just a signal to send to another amp or powered speaker.

There are two cables, USB for power and an audio (green) cable to plug into the speaker output. If you look closely at the picture you can see them.

You would have to cut off the two little speaker plugs, strip each of the four wires back half and inch, separately twist the strands for each wire, and plug those wires into the amplifier's speaker connections. There is a picture on the Amazon ad for this amp that shows the back and what the speaker connections look like. This is not complicated but you have to end up with the wires from one speaker going into the amplifier's left two speaker connectors (+, -) and the other speaker wire going into the two right speaker connections (+,- do not matter much in small systems, but if the speaker wires are color-coded then you may as well match with the "+" and "-".).

Correct, one speaker receives the power for both so they need to be connected.

This is correct. The secondary (bottom) pair allow you to either bi-wire which is when you connect two sets of speaker wire to each connector, or bi-amp, which is when you power your speakers with two separate amplified channels. You do not need either to fully exploit the potential of these awesome speakers.

there's a wire between them. what is wireless is that there's a wireless receiver for the 2 rear speakers so there's no wires from the main receiver to the back speakers. this is a great system for the price. hope this helps.

Like the previous person said these have two on positions. If you are looking at the back of this, the left and right don't have any contact. The center is the common. I'll give you an example with a speaker. Say you wanted to wire two speakers so you can chose which one you used. You would divide the connectors so one side is positive and one is negative (right and left side and it doesn't matter which is which). The two center (common) would have the positive and negative connected from the receiver. Now from there you would wire positive and negative on the top for one speaker and the same for the other speaker on the bottom. So now the signal is coming from the receiver and by flipping the switch you are connecting the common signal to either speaker. By flipping the switch to the middle neither speaker would be receiving a signal.

It is two, they come as a pair. I know you think for that price it is a steal, but they perform nicely for a surround sound speaker.

I think the dual-speaker capability requires a wired connection between tr two speakers

It is one set of 2 speakers. Would be the right purchase for one set of doors. Front or back.

from the source to the speaker or the one from 1 speaker to the other. it is hard wired to one speaker power and audio and removable audio wire to the second speaker. I guess you could add an extension audio for between the second speaker or the computer or both, but need a female plug at one end to do so. t he plugs are the standard type (green plug )

There are 4 sets of wires , and it also has 2 sets of RCA jacks. It also has a third set RCA jacks not sure what they are for

This is a passive speaker with a pass-thru system. Two 1/4" connectors are on the back, which allow you to daisy-chain two of these speakers together on one amplifier output channel

I don't understand your question--you speak of connecting one regular speaker wire to these rca connections, but this _is_ the speaker wire, so it sounds as if you're asking about connecting a speaker wire to the speaker wire. This product is only used to connect speakers that have a single rca input on the back to a receiver, so on one end of each wire there's a male rca jack, and on the other there's two strands of bare copper wire that you connect to the positive and negative terminals on the back of your receiver. The rca jack does not plug into the receiver, as there's only one rca plug per wire--so if you're looking for speaker wire with rca plugs on the receiver end, this isn't the right product for you.

There was one pair (2 speakers) in the box. Two for the front or two for the rear which ever you choose.
