Do you Bi-Wire, if you can?

I do. I don't question Albert's judgement so my VR-5s are biwired. There is another potential benefit - choosing cables specific to the job (hi or low) can help you to tailor sound a tad.

I'm biwiring with Analysis Plus Oval 9/Oval 12 and it gave my system more low end punch. I can see this combo eventually replacing the ever popular Kimber 8TC/4TC biwire setup as the working man's biwire bargain - speaking in relative terms, of course. It's smoother and more musical than the Kimber combo.

I have found that bi-wire runs of speaker cables tend to be more critical on some speaker designs than others. The speakers I am using currently (Reference 3A Episodes) Have the bi-wire option, and they sounded much better when Bi-wired with the same brand of cable versus single wire with a bare ended wire jumper made from the same speaker wire. It really opened up the width, depth and layering of my soundstage. With another pair of speakers I once owned, the most noticable change was an improvement in bass definition and clarity. Hopefully, your favorite wires are affordable, and it won't hurt the budget to give bi-wiring a try.

Biwiring for me produced a a slight "difference" in the sound preferred by some but not by others myself included. I sold the second SC and bought a better IC for source to amp which improved the sound dramatically for EVERYONE who listened. YMMV.

Yes in a shotgun config. AQ type 6, old but good...

Any of you who are bi-wiring ever try also connecting jumpers (while bi-wired to both terminals), just to experience the effect? If so, what did you think, better, worse, different-how?
