Interesting way to wire speakers…???


Hello all,

So I have recently been reviewing the age old argument of single wiring your speakers vs. bi-wiring and/or removing the bridge plate between the binding posts and connecting them with jumper cables matching your speaker cable.

Something occurred to me last night about another way to wire up your speakers….

WHAT ABOUT LIKE THIS---?????

Would you consider this to be ‘bi-wiring’ or single?
Good idea or bad idea?
Pluses and minuses to wiring this way?

I haven’t tested it out yet, and wanted to gather some opinions before actually amping them up this way.

Thanks

The simple solution is to strip away the plastic coating only where it makes contact with the binding posts.

Or cover the bare wires with some Teflon tape or reapply the plastic sheath to cover the exposed wire.

This isn't a bad way to keep the system tuned to the sound of that single type of wire.

I hate what those speaker brass jumpers do,better to make your own with the same speaker wire.Jumpers add spades or banana connectors,hole in binding post may not be large enough for two wires.

Or you could open up the box and attach the internal wires to one pair of binding posts.I did that with a pair of Mirage M3si and enjoyed the sound of my single run of costly speaker wires.
