High end speakers without bi-wiring?


Recently, I've read quite a few posts that disclaim the benefit of bi-wiring. The claim is that for bi-wire capable speakers, there is no noticeable difference between bi-wired and single-wired connection, assuming good quality jumper cabbles are used for single-wired configuration.
Then, is there a move from high end speaker manufacturers to forget about the bi-wiring option and just provide single wire for their high-end speakers?
(Well, bi-amping is another issue, but let's not consider bi-amping.)

It depends on the speaker. Dunlavys sound better with single wire. Vandersteens sound better biwired. You can't say one is better than the other for all speakers.
Rrog wrote exactly what I was going to post. It depends on the speaker design.
If you can't bi-wire, you also can't bi-amp.
That definitely limits your options for amplification.
I don't know about their current designs, but Dynaudio fitted speakers with their OCOS-terminals, so bi-wiring of -amping where of the menu.
