Bi Wiring - Any Good


Having read the response of "Fotopres" to the BiAmp question and agreeing with the engineering concept, I have wondered about the value of BiWiring from an Amp to the speakers with two sets of connection posts. Does anyone have an explanation for the value of BiWiring?

Not anymore,most better manufactures are goig into singel wire...10 years ago I'd say yes

I use no name 10 ga wire and recently spent the $20 to try the bi-wire thing. With my meager stuff (energy 5.1's) it did seem to improve the imaging and lower bass.I went back to single wire for a while and I didn't notice much until my friend commented on the difference. It's back to bi-wire now.
Its to my understanding when you use two seperate wires vs one the amp reed a drop in the imprdence so if you bi-wire and 8ohm speakers the amp playes 4ohm and in case the power is dobbled that why is sounds briter and the bass is lower because it not sharring X amount of current.
I tried it and it works. You hear less strain in the midrange when a bass passage occurs in the music. This improvement is the result of having a separate path for hi's and low's. You can convert any speaker to bi-wiring by changing the crossover inside the speaker. All you do is separate the common ground on the crossover. You have to add another set of +/- terminals and another run of wire. (the - or grounds will be connected to each other only at the amplifier terminals)
