A two way. I don't think you can biwire this one without messing up the protection circuitry.

Regular sort of filter, but protection on bass and tweeter relies on a common ground. Biwiring is all a bit overrated IMO. It was mainly convenient to mount a crossover on the bigger plastic plate of a biwired socket. Whether it improved the sound is debatable. Good solid speaker cable works well enough.

I just read the manual. B&W say you can remove those red shorting links for bi-connection or biwiring.
I'm not sure if that is just generic advice, or if they have tried it. I still see certain fault conditions that could cause protection circuit problems with biwiring.
The reason I read the manual, is that with the shorting links in place, there is a serious risk of shorting out your amplifier if you added biwiring cables incorrectly.
Not a great design, IMO.
