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!

It really depends. I recently upgraded speakers, the old pair sounded much better biwired. Upon setting up my new speakers with the same cables they sounded terrible. I was obviously dissapointed when my old speakers sounded a lot better in back to back comparisons. Then I set them up using a single wire and they now sound an order of magnitude better than my old speakers. I also upgraded the cable to Harmonic Tech from Kimber 8tc and the improvement is dramatic. The true test is through back to back comparison.
