That type of wiring used to be called "shotgun" wiring. Sometimes using a second set of identical wires in parallel with the first set is a nice improvement, but sometimes not. I have a bi-wire pair of Audio Note SPx cables which have both + conductors connected to a single spade on the amp end and both -conductors connected to a single spade, and separate connectors on the speaker ends. This allows me to try different configurations. First up was true bi-wiring which I didn't particularly like with my speakers. Next I tried a single pair of wires vs. a shotgun setup. The shotgun had stronger bass which was nice but the midrange and treble were not as lively or realistic as the single pair of wires. So there you go. You just have to try it yourself and see whether you like the changes or not.
Double run of 2 sets of speaker cables from stereo amp to single binding post speakers
just was wondering if anyone has ever taken two pairs of speakers cables and "piggybacked" them from single binding posts on amp output to single pair of binding posts on the back of a speaker, basically running 2 pairs of speaker cables in "parallel" from single binding (L & R) post amp output to single binding (L & R) posts speaker input? Why, you ask? Is because I am really liking the sound of two different sets of speaker cables and would like to combine them at the same time to see what improvement/difference happens...
