Why do you think Bi-Wiring improves the sound ?


I now know of 3 people that have converted their speakers to be bi-wired but are not bi-amping .

What is your experience or opinion on why bi-wiring without bi-amping might or does sound better ?

I am concidering converting my speakers but I do not want to be fooled by the addition of increased AWG .

In my experience bi-wiring never improves the sound, it is always horses for courses, you win something and you lose something.
The initial feeling of an improved sound is often caused by a slightly better separation, but after a while I realise that the presentation have lost some coherence.
I gave up on bi-wiring long ago, and my amplifier manufacturer (Lavardin) bluntly advises against it.
With a limited budget having a better single wire speaker cable rather than a cheaper bi-wire one works fo me.
