Replacing Jumpers = Bi-wiring??


On biwirable speakers, will replacing the jumpers with a quality cable give the same improvement in performance as biwiring? I am getting conflicting advice, and would appreciate any input you might have.
Thanks!

My speakers, newform research r8-2's were always bi-wired until lasst year when I changed things and in the process found something interesting IM OWN setup. The speakers were more coherent when run with a single Good wire. I talked with Pierre at Mapleshade and bought the mapleshade ribbon jumpers. This was a huge jump. I mentioned it to John Meyer, designer of the newform ribbon and he was surprised. I also changed the red dawn for acoustic zen satori, a wire this speaker loves...it's all synergy and your results may differ. I will say the copper jumpers supplied with most speakers hinder the performance of the speaker as I have found out....cheers, Lloyd
Hello Leafs. So you noticed the same thing I did when you went single wired. I think everyone should try both ways and decide which they like best. Pierre at Mapleshade believes in single wires if they are quality wires should as his double helix. Too bad about the Leafs. They will be knocked out first round. The question is, will they win a game? Cheers, Leafs and thanks for your input.
Yo Leafs, I'm a disappointed Leafs fan. Or should I say "the pretenders". Each year dawns and we pretend the leafs are going to do it. The leafs make all the right noises and they pretend they're going to do it. But they never do. And the dance goes on but there is no stanley cup contender in Toronto and they'll have to start the rebuild. And we pretend to believe them. Cheers, bluenose
