Vandersteen and NOT BI WIRE---Your thoughts


I have the Quatro's---powered by CJ ET 250 S and ET 5 Pre--in spite of the advice from many, I find that speakers simply sound cleaner with high end speaker wire, and bridging to the bass. I'd love to hear the thoughts of others. My current set up sounds clean and clear in the mid---no muddiness--in between with the bass--generally better sound. (previous bi wire was Audio Comets) And I'm really liking it. Would welcome all input as I'm searching for the best speaker wire that would bring out the best in these speakers-- pro or con and advice related to bringing system to "next level"--thanks--

I tried it both ways I prefer biwire but with that being said it is all about budget. Jumping will get you 90% there. One good cable jumpered could sound better than 2 cheaper cables biwired.
Funny thing is I hated the vandersteen connector block for years. When I asked vandersteen about then there is a good reason he uses them and a lot of those big good blocks you can crank down hurt the sound. One of those things that dont make sense up frount, more contact is not necessarily better.
