| How does bi-wiring work? your speakers need be properly configured with a separate set of mid / high binding posts AND you must use what is called an external biwire speaker cable AND if at all possible physically separate he bass cable from the mid / high cable @tomic... | |
| How does bi-wiring work? @megabyte , it just hit me that "WBC" = "Worlds Best Cables." A couple of hours or so ago I just ordered a set of 6" 8AWG WBC jumpers to experiment with, in addition to the shotgun biwiring I am already doing. | |
| How does bi-wiring work? @soix , just a quick update: looking at those Audioquest jumpers on Crutchfield they did not appear to me to be terminated with bananas, or actually terminated with anything at all. So I went to AA's site to look at them, and they had some Q&am... | |
| How does bi-wiring work? @soix , thanks for the input--very much appreciated, and I'll try those affordable jumpers from Crutchfield (the link you provided). I never understood bi-wiring myself, but since my B&W 805s were set up for it and I believe B&W was reco... | |
| How does bi-wiring work? . . . I just took a look on PCX and Furutech as a set of four for $237. . . . | |
| How does bi-wiring work? Thanks, @soix , yes, that absolutely clears things up. I guess I am shotgun biwiring. I do have two separate runs to each speaker (to make it easier on the amplifier end I had one run made with bananas to use on the amp end, but spades for the ... | |
| How does bi-wiring work? . . . @soix , I guess this is the answer to my (above) question? If your speakers are bi-wirable and you're still using the stock jumpers between your binding posts, you are not hearing all that your speakers are capable of. Most stock jumpe... | |
| How does bi-wiring work? @soix , this is probably a stupid question, but what is "shotgun" biwiring? And to clarify--does it matter that the jumpers you used in conjunction with the biwire are bananas? The reason I ask about that is because I still have the (gold plate... | |
| How does bi-wiring work? +1, @knotscott , that is kind of the way I look at it. | |
| How does bi-wiring work? @jmeyers , your question interests me as well. I have an ancient (30 year old) pair of B&W 805 (the Matrix seies) that are set up for bi-wiring, so back in the days when I was making a lot of money, I did bi-wire them. I have a real tough t... | |

| Best Covers Tori Amos cover of I'm On Fire | |
| Best Covers Teagan and Sarah covering Dancing In The Dark is kind of cute. | |
| Purchase on Audiogon arrived not as described Thanks for the update and I am happy you at least got the purchase refund back. Reading this thread is enough to keep me from using paypal. | |
| Best Covers I forgot to say that I really like Lucinda Williams’ cover of The Games People Play. At a concert back in ’99 at which Lucinda was opening for Tom Petty, she told us (the crwod) that she really like Tom Petty’s cover of (Lucinda’s) Changed The Lo... |
