To bridge or not to bridge ?


My speakers are Bi Wired, with Speaker Cable Bi Wired. I have tried, to install one bridge on the (-) speaker post, and the music is much more beefy, with a larger musical spectrum. Is anybody experiment also good improvement with that configuration? I have tried also the bridge on the (+) binding post, with less than improvement.

+1 bache! Any apparent change is strictly imaginary - though the tin hat crowd will disagree!

Just like adding a mpingo disc to the tops of your speakers! LOL!

>>>>Like you know. 😬
Elisabeth, your right depending of type speakers and configuration system. In mine quite an improvement.

 yes I have tried all connections with the bridge and for me it is the best connecting to (-), other connections are less musical or with no improvement, you have to try.
05-29-2018 7:52pmElisabeth, thank you for your explanation... I also try Bybee iQSE inside my CD player and one QSE under my power amp, and the effect allowed better stereo image, and the revealing of other accompain instruments, not heard before.

your explanation:  "The reasoning is the connection keeps the two speaker parts in synch. rather than allowing the crossover parts to skew to timing.The neg strap brings them together.That is the reasoning i read on this tweak."

So the idea is, 1) leave the negative side strap in place and only connect one negative terminal, I assume either high frequency or low frequency, and 2) remove the positive side strap and connect both positive terminals? I suspect one could reverse the process and try leaving the positive strap in place.
Did I get that right? Easy enough to try...

Absolutlely you are correct Elisabeth, that what I do Too
Interesting.  What sonically improves with this set up? Very curious.  What improvements do you tend to hear with this wiring arrangement in place?

As I mentionned, with the bridge on the (-) speaker post, the music is more natural, more body, better tone, more flesh around the bone.  Also another trick, when I remove the spikes under my speakers and replace by footer like Vibrapods, greater unity within the speaker, according to me  the spikes kill the speaker caracter.  Never go back with spikes !
I am trying it now.  Need to listen more because right now I hear what the poster described.  Thus far a nice little gain in coherence and body. 
Installed these in 2013 on my speakers even on the unused - speaker leads on my pair of subs..no doubt they made a nice improvment. Friends could easily hear the improvement even though they could not see me make the switch. Tom  http://www.exemplaraudio.com/Products/E-Loops.html
There are 4 possible combinations:
No Bridge
Bridge -
Bridge +
Bridge ±

Each will change the LCR interaction of amp/cable/speaker. Whether one is preferred is purely subjective.

Recommendation without the same program, hardware and environment is worthless.
3 different systems only 1 of mine. All were improved with the e loops as used above. Tom

Its not subjective it is obvious at the first instant of the first encounter. Tom
