I can't speak for your speakers specifically but the several pair I have owned over many years have mostly been bi-wire and each of them have appreciated it.

| CJ custs – please help me get rid of my headache As the series get newer, the old CJ sound gets less and less. The MV-45,50,52...midrange and seductive EL-34 magic will not be present anywhere near the degree you had. I too had EL-34 based power amps and when I finally switched to my current CJ ... | |

| Tri-amping 3.6R's; what amp for the ribbons? Hello, Thought I'd throw in my 2 cents as I have a somewhat similar type arrangement. I too run dipole radiating panels and am "multi-amping" my speakers but in a slightly different way. Your 3.6's are great speakers (my first 'hi end' speakers we... | |

| interconnects & powercords on subwoofers??? Sounds like you're in great shape, they say 2 subs are much easier to integrate into the system and having a dedicated line is ideal. The biggest lesson I've ever learned is : you can get pumped up by all the product hype but it really boils down ... | |
| interconnects & powercords on subwoofers??? Based on my experiences with my Rel Stadium 2 I will definitely say the answer to your question, unfortunately, is "YES", with utmost certainty.
