I have a pair of Infinity speakers (Kappa 400). If I am not bi-amping the speakers, which pair of speaker terminals do I use on the back of my Kappa 400's?

Hi There WLAW,
I am in Auckland NZ and do repair work for a high quality Amplifier chain so I could have a look at yours for you....

Being Local in Auckland it will save you sending it away off shore to Australia.

SOURCE: component speaker not working

The easiest thing to test is to try swapping the connections of the front component speakers at the amp connections. If the problem follows the speakers, the issue is probably with the speakers. I would triple check (again) the speaker wire connections. It's also possible the crossover for the driver side component speakers has an issue (thus why the tweeter worked for a while).

If the problem stays on the drivers side, the issue is probably with that channel on the amp. Triple check the RCA connections for that channel.

It's much easier to test other speakers on an amp channel versus trying to check it with a meter.

If the driver's door is "abused" often, my initial thought is the wiring at the speaker or the wiring in the speaker (to voice coil, within the crossover, etc) is the most likely culprit.

You can at a minimum, bi-wire your speakers by wiring the speakers with the A and B speaker outputs. The A speaker outputs end up running the tweeters and the B will end up powering the woofers.

If you select bi-amping the device will use a second amp for your rear speakers, this indicates that in your setup menu you probably have deleted the rears (set to None). Try to find the settings for your rear speaker in your setupmenu and see if they are selected in normal operation.
If all fails, see if you can reset teh device back to factory settings, sometimes software can get confused after using for a while. Resetting should than fix most problems.

You can also check and see if there is maybe a software update available for your device, loading and installing is explained in either the file or on manufacturers site.

I have what sounds like the same problem with my Infinity's. Found a small crack in the foam surrounds of the speaker cone. Looking for a place to buy rebuild kits on the internet when I found this. Hope this helps.
