Connect the positive and negative as already discussed in the chord silverscreen thread. I believe you have those.
IMO it doesn't matter whether you use it on the top two or bottom two binding posts but the conventional wisdom says that you use the bottom posts which usually go to the woofers.
btw practically listening, wiring the single wire cable to the hi-frequency posts (contrary to conventional wisdom), has definitely accentuated those frequencies. so obviously the gold plated links provided by sonus faber are not optimally functional. guess have to start looking at chord links or something similar to improve performance.
There is a possibility for your observation as the current draw could be higher than normal for the tweeter due to the way the crossover might be setup. What is the effect if you connected to the woofer terminals? Does the high frequencies get muffled? The links also play a major role in the final sound reproduction. Using quality ones would be a definite help.
The biggest benefit of bi-wiring in my opinion is smoother bass and clearer highs and midrange due to the individual cables managing the current for the relevant frequencies along with the cross over.
if you use the gold plated links to connect the higher/lower frequencies of the speaker, where do you hook up the actual cable - the cable binding slots for the lower or higher frequencies?

With the odd >exception, these flat, gold-plated links will be found on almost every bi-wireable speaker. Removing these and replacing them with either short runs of the speaker cable >you are using, or better still, fitting a purpose made set of links (Chord Signature Speaker Links) can dramatically improve the performance of the speakers.
here i have a quesiton :
in a biwireable speaker, when connecting with a single wire cable, can we use the same wire to link both the higher and lower frequencies (one for positive and one for negative)?
so have enough bare wire from the cable so that you can run the cable from the top slot to the bottom slot?
will that work?
appreciate any insights.
Yes that can be done but it'll give more chances of a short circuit depending on the position of the binding posts.
Like I said in the other post before it, if you happen to do this, then run one wire from higher driver's binding post to lower binding post and the other wire from lower driver's binding post to up.
