I like the way mlavinge described it in a post, tri-wired. Three cables tied together into one end termination to one set of connectors. Finshed cables were 2 inches in diameter. I believe the thicker the better both outside AND inside the speakers.
biwire? and best way to do it?
Hi folks!
Was playing around with my Wharfedale EVO 4.4s, trying to get more bass weight - changed the bananas from one HF and one LF to both LF, and WHOA. All of a sudden the kick drum is in the room. Just what I was looking for. This was the first time I had noticed difference with the speaker wire position.
Then for fun, i moved both bananas to the HF. And WOW the AMT tweeter just sparkles - so much air and detail. But the bass weight went away.
So question for all you fine folks is two-fold:
1) Would bi-wiring give me the best of both worlds? That more sparkly tweeter with that heavy bass? Or would i really need to bi-amp them? I’m running them with a Rega Elicit-R.
2) How best to do it? Get premade 4-bananas-to-2-bananas Canare 4S11 cables from Blue Jeans, or just but some stacking bananas for my amp and run more of the Belden 10AWG wire I have? Or some other trick you might have?
BTW my cable run is ~12 ft, maybe a little longer.
TIA for your thoughts!
