Using different cables for Bi-Wiring


Is it advisable to use different cables (i.e different brands or different models) for bi-wiring or it is better to use both the same cables?

Sticking with the same manufacturer can me it a little less frustrating..Either can work..Its just takes time to find the right combo.. Copper bottom and silver top works well..........I have done it both ways with and without the same brand and , I like the silver on top ( highs ) and copper for low end very well...
Thanks Thorman. I note your reasons for using silver cables for the top end and copper cables for the bottom end. My concern in using different cables is whether it will cause an uneven frequency distribution?
Addressing your concern about different cables causing an uneven frequency distribution . . .

An engineer here at work has a bumper sticker on her car that says:

"Enlightment comes not from the answer, but from the question!"

I think that not only have you come up the perfect question, but you've also answered your own question at the same time. I think that you've talked it out to yourself.

That's why the common consenus is to use the same cables on the top and bottom.
