Connecting Klipsch Cornwall to Rotel RA-1062

I recently purchased a system.

Luxman SQ-N150 Amp
Luxman DA-250
Klipsch Cornwall IV
Bi-Amp speaker cables ( these were recommended but I am new to bi-amping/bi-wiring)

The amp is on back order so I am using my single Rotel RA1062 until it arrives. If I connect both speakers to A or both to B only one will have sound. A-Left and B-right. If I connect one speaker to A and one speaker to B I get sound but imaging is terrible. Does the bi-amp cable cause the need to use both A and B? I saw on another thread that the poles are reversed when bi-amping. I will try to switch that (assuming A and B are in effect two amps). 

Thanks,
Bill

There should be four binding posts on the back of your amp - two for speaker "A" red + black -.
                    two for speaker "B" red + black -

On the front of the amp set the speaker selector to EITHER "A" or "B" and connect to whichever you set it at.I suspect you are using the wrong binding posts.The posts may be lined up vertically OR horizontally. It's easy to get one on correctly and the other on the incorrect post.
