Biwiring seems highly desirable. I hate sharing.
And that's what motivates most makers to enable bi-wiring. Is it audible?? I have yet to hear it.
Biwire - wiring diagram inside speaker
Anybody ever seen a diagram showing how connection wires inside a speaker flow between the connections in back of speaker thru to the driver? Trying to understand the biwire rationale. Any info about this issue would be helpful.
Ideally, diagram inside b&w 802 d3 would be awesome.

Hi OP, The idea is that the current in the cable to the speaker has less interference. I have not yet heard this actually work. The general idea (explained badly by a non-believer) is that the current going to the woofer can result in increased resistance, which then affects the mid/treble. Phrases like skin effect or self-inductance are thrown about. Take a look at this post I wrote, which goes over the schematic for the LM-1 crossover. You can use that to understand how biwiring would work. https://speakermakersjourney.blogspot.com/2016/05/lm-1-bookshelf-crossover.html Right now, C1 and L2 connect at the input. If this speaker were bi-wired, C1 and L2 would have their own input jacks, and the little down arrows which are a shared ground, would no longer be shared or go to the same black input connector. Hope this helps, E |
