So red to red, black to black.

Don't short the red and black.  That is, do not allow a conductor to touch both at the same time.

Yes, they should have straps unless you are bi-amping.

A strap is just a beefy conductor, so short speaker cables can be used to connect between them. 

You can pick either set once the jumpers are in place.
