Hi all, i've taken delivery of some Focal PS130 speakers and tweeters today and they look great. I've take a look at the crossovers and i am confused right out of the box by the instructions. For the time being i'll be running these components from my head unit (amp to follow next month).

So far as I can tell I will need to split the cables coming out of the head unit to go between the tweeter and woofer crossovers. Is that right and if so how do i do it? The first diagram kind of explains this:

Any help appreciated on how i wire the crossovers up to my head unit.

send the cables from the head unit to one of the cross overs (doesn't matter which) then run a cable back out to from that crossover to the other, only needs to be a short bridge from one to the other.

Thanks. So literally + and - from head unit to woofer crossover. Then short - and + cables from woofer crossover to tweeter crossover?
