McIntosh speaker connection questions

I have a MC250 , a C26 pre amp and 1 Pair of B&W speakers that do not require equilizer and a pair of xr7 speakers taht require equalizer. I just bought an old in excellent shape McIntosh XR7 speakers and the xr7 requires a MQ101 which I bought too. My questions are:
1- how do I connect the equalizer MQ101 to the xr7 and
2- how do I by pass the equalizer for the B&W speakers that do not require this
3- I also have a Niles speaker selector with volume control and I am planning to use this for other speakers that do not require equalizer how do I connect this?
is there any place where installation diagrams for mac's are available?
Thx very much for helping an ignorant but a lover of good music :)

I really appreciate your help
The Pre amp C26 has 2 bottom speaker selector ( main and Remote) Can this be helpful with my initial idea?
I hope we can make it work.

Thanks I really appreciate your help!.
I have several rooms with speakers.
Would I be able to have both speakers xr7 & B& W playing at the same time in the main room? 1 pair of speakers using the MQ101 (xr7) and at the same time have the other speakers B&W playing without the equalizer?
I would like to use the Niles to control other speakers in different rooms *at the same time I am playing the 2 pair of speakers in the main room. How can I make this connection. Any new changes to your previous answer
Thanks again!!
