Of course I meant "bi-wire" not 'bi-amp" (although I do that also).
For some reason I can't find the option that allows one to correct a posting.

To Biwire or not to biwire
Right now my speakers are bi-wired and I love the sound, but I'm looking to upgrade my amp and am not sure I'll be able to to use the double runs. I spent a lot on the cables (all Kimber, 4TC for the treble and 8 for the bass) and would really like to keep what I've got. Can anyone tell me some amps that will accomodate? Sorry if this is a silly question -- I'm fairly new to the upgrade bug... |
I use Audioquest Volcano for bass and mid, Audioquest Mont Blanc for treble. I tried them with and without a jumper for extended periods of time. Without a jumper is way better than with a jumper. The clarity and musicality is far superior without the jumper. There is more, but overblown bass, when the jumper is used. |
This is an old, oft- recurring, and well- explored issue. Go scope out the numerous discussion posts here on AUDIOGON and CANUCKAUDIOMART. Here is just one sampler : https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/to-bi-wire-or-use-jumpers |
