Doubling a Set of Speaker Cables


While reading a "professional "review of the Daedalus Audio Ulysses Floorstanding Speaker, the reviewer is adamant about the improvement TWO sets of speaker cables connected to each speaker - regardless of the brand - makes.

This is something that crossed my mind long ago, prior to reading it now, but I’ve never realistically considered trying it nor have I ever come across this in a review. At face-value it seems to me this technique would do more harm than good. I’m wondering if there are any folks on the forum using this technique of two sets of cables (and as mentioned in the article this is irrespective of bi-amping or merely using a smaller gauge) and if so, can/do you vouch for any "improvement" one should expect.

Thanks.

I had my mind all but made up that there would be no difference, but I was wrong.  Anyone wondering, try it!  :-)

Resurrecting an old thread. I'm having a home built and they are going to run speaker wire through the wall for surround speakers. When I heard they were using 16 gauge, I wasn't thrilled about that since the plan is decent set of speakers (Revel Concerta 2 monitors). They said, no problem we can run to sets of wires for me which will give an equivalent 13 gauge wire.

Here's my question, when you place the two sets of wire into the banana plugs, do you twist the matching raw wire, or just stack the two on top of each other?

Anyone done this with two different brands of cable? I currently have a pair of bare wire and a pair with bananas, but just concerned of doing some damage to my amp with too much capacitance at play.
I use a double run of Morrow Audio newer SP3's  and wont go back to regular bi-wire method in a single cable!
