Celestion SL600 Expertise Needed


I recently inherited a pair of these speakers and I want to hook them up to my Crayon integrated amp. The back of each speakers has four round female connections. Two red and two black.

Can someone guide me as to the correct connection method? Further, will I need a jumper for each speaker?

Way back in the day I actually owned a pair of these. So I am interested how they will sound with more modern equipment.

 

Thank you in advance.

The 600's are special speakers with the Aerolam cabinets that were later used on the 700's. You do need to be careful with the drivers since they are no longer available, and they were also the last Celestions to use the copper dome tweeter, like the original sl6.  That tweeter is less extended and efficient than the aluminum dome, and by now I'm sure it is well tarnished. 

Those are special speakers, but they will only really open up and show you their best with good solid power. 

I completely forgot there was an SL600si. I suppose then that it has the aluminum dome tweeter like the SL6si.
