Hello Art ... I have not done an A,B test with Cardas Biwire to single wire and jumper , but I did with Transparent . The difference was very very slight , In the end I picked the single wire route . Can't say for sure the single wire was better sounding , but it was at least as good . The biwire route was about $1500. more , and if I ever changed to a single wired only speaker , I would not have to purchase new cables . Hope this helps a bit .
Biwire vs Single/jumper: Cardas Golden Ref
My experience - similar to others per these discussion boards - is that the effect of moving to internal bi-wire (or even shotgun pair) from single wire plus jumper is a little bit unpredictable.
