Quick bi-wire question

Which is the better way for me to bi-wire my speakers:

Bi-wiring with the pre-made bi-wire cable (4 spades speaker end, 2 spades amp end, total of 2 cables) or running 4 separate cables (2 spade/2spade)using both my A + B speaker selection on my amp.

I wouldn't think there was any difference but might be wrong. Thnx.

I'm pretty sure that using A and B speaker outputs to biwire a single stereo pair of speakers is not right. Others with more technical knowledge than me can explain, but I would certainly go with either a single biwire set up from one set of outputs as you described, or running dual (aka shotgun )biwire off of single set of outputs.

Sugarbrie- never heard that idea on shotgun biwire; is there an theory on that or is it based on your experience? Just curious, I've got double runs of Syn Res Sig 2 on my Vandy 3asigs and I've got one run for mid/tweet and other for woof, both placed on the same binding post. Sounds great but I've never tried it your way. Maybe now I'll have something else to do this weekend.
