Do you Bi-Wire, if you can?

This topic came about in another post.

If your speakers allow for bi-wiring, do you use this feature? Or, do you use good quality jumpers and single wire cables? Or, do you just use the jumper plates that come with the speakers and single wire cables?

(If you are bi-amping, then that's completely different.)

All speakers I have owned which can be bi, tri, quad wired have had explanations in their owners manuals about the benefits, and why the manufacture chose to design and build them this way. I have always taken advantage of this feature. My Matrix 800 are quad-wired. It does however cost more in ancillary equipment.

Bi/Tri-wiring
Worthwhile improvements may be obtained by the progressive replacement of links by multiple loudspeaker leads which helps to minimise cable-borne interactions between crossovers.
Bi-wiring is strongly recommended as a minimum requirement.
