Re: Biwiring, any listenable difference?

Depends. On some speakers you may be able to notice a slight difference, especially if the cables are good. Not much to gain though if you ask me, only requite it a listen!

Re: Biwiring, any listenable difference?

Thanks bertdw... very clear the commodity.. my curiosity is towards personal experience of any fellow member on these forums... anyway, I hope in the next few days I can examination by myself on this tweak...

Re: Biwiring, whatsoever listenable difference?

Dave Wilson would likely land in the "don't do it" camp...

From an old Stereophile review....

"The lack of a bi-wiring option is common to Wilson Audio loudspeakers, but it'south not a cost-saving measure; Wilson is apparently not a proponent of bi-wiring..."

Welcome to the forum.

Apropos biwiring, It might make a divergence if the speakers are of a lower efficiency. Other than that, no big audible difference IMHO.

Damn! Where were my manners?

Aye, welcome to the forum!

As per personal use...

I think my ribbon speakers sound better biwired (which would fit with Mark'due south description) just have not noted a significant do good with my other types of speakers.

Welcome, once again.

Thank You for the welcome...Yeah... could be... my PSB are 90db and 6 Ohm.. efficient and very good synergy with my "piffling but very capable" Rega Panache 3...

Cheers... aye... until this very moment I hold with you but as they say, in love, war and the audiophile, any tweak worth effort...

Re: Biwiring, whatever listenable difference?

Of course. I ran biwiring with my old speakers, but the comeback was much bigger when I switched to expensive speaker cable. Expensive, well... $6

Good wiring is important

Noticible jump in clarity biwiring Harbeths and Spendors. Tried better jumpers and tried upper and lower pairs of terminals to make up one's mind which manner worked ameliorate with single pair wiring. Gave up fiddling effectually when I heard how much clearer biwiring sounded than annihilation I was doing with a single pair. YMMV.

Biwiring better? Darn tootin' cowboy!

If the speakers sections are wired seperately and you utilise cables that actually make a diffeence, similar MIT, which have specially tuned networks for each section, then information technology makes a HUGE difference!  It nevertheless amazes me how so many people keep playing with plain wires expecting to hear a departure that is substantially better than any other cable.  Of course I went through the same procedure, listening to reviewers and other knuckleheads that would have y'all believe plain wire tin deal with the real world problems a signal faces when travelling through an sound system.  Merely don't trust me.....go some decent MIT cables and demo them at home for 30 days.  Opinions volition only distract and misfile you...try them yourself.

YMMV for sure.  Combine "hot"

YMMV for sure.  Combine "hot" cables with "hot" metal tweeters and results may disappoint.  Notwithstanding, the same trick may correctly "melody" other weaknesses in some speakers.

I'm breaking the rules by using old Monster Cable stranded 12ga for my Paradigm's woofers and AudioQuest AQ-4 for the mids and tweeter.  If I ever get ambitious, I'll have t swap them around for a test.  I'd really adopt to adhere a expert, tubed, ability amp to one cease of the AQ-4s and bi-amp.

Good day!

Non sure, merely think non much

Honestly, I don't it used all that much. I can't call back do any serious testing though. It's much less a tried and true concept that even the already contentious issue of upgraded speaker wires (which I strongly believe makes an obvious audible difference, upward to a betoken). I recollect the effeciency thing maybe could exist the ticket, peculiarly with say, a hybrid cone/electrostatic model.

I'k curious actually, and could try it on my speakers, but tyhen I'd have to utilise cheaper spare wire and that would add a whole other variable. Otherwise, since I do use upgraded wire it comes downwards to being to expensive to have ii sets of wire.
