Bi-wiring speakers

Hellohifi, please explain "true bi-wiring". Your post is suggesting that speaker manf. are just adding a second cosmetic pair of speaker posts, and that there is no difference in internal crossover design between a bi-wire
speaker and single wire speaker. Surely you are not suggesting this are you?

Well said Hellohifi. If they insist on buying it then keep selling it.

Megasam: Speaker manufacturers put dual sets of posts on their products for two reasons: 1) It permits biamping, which really can make a difference; and 2) It makes their products palatable to those who think biwiring makes a difference. After all, they may think you're a scientific illiterate, but they still want to sell to you.

this head in the sand stuff cracks me up. you figure it out, haha

Jostler3 I read through all your posts the past 30 days and found two very disturbing tendancies. First, rather than making your statements as opinion, they are more like a lecture. Like your view is the right one and that's that. The second is that like a few others here you act like you might indeed be the second coming on Einstein, and therefor no need to question your scientific fact. I see nothing in this post that tells me you can prove bi-wiring does not work. I really don't even care, but as you stated elsewhere I too want to protect the new audio hobbiest from unfounded theory or simple opinion. I find the basis of your posts to be of merit, I really think your all mighty aproach will tend to bring out arguments and your point will be lost. J.D.
