Default Simple? Wiring Crossover

I have a ADS crossover. It has the + and - for the tweeters and woofer. It has 2 input + and 2 input -. Not sure why they did this. It has "biwire" and it looks as if the two + and the two - are connected to each other through a jumper wire. Does it matter where I put the + and - input? It doesn't look like it since they seem to be in parallel, but why the hell did they do this?

if you wanted to bi amp them I think

I dont think it will matter if you just use 1 set of +/-

Is this odd? I just haven't seen anything like this. I've seen infinity and Mb crossovers, but there is usually one set of input. If it was to be bi-amp, wouldn't I have to "bridge" the input to get power to both? I see the wiring left from the previous owner and he has one "bridge" on one xover and used a set of + and - on the other crossover. I guess it doesn't matter.
