Has biwire speaker cabling become "old" ?


I notice some makers are not stocking biwire termination. Has biwire gone out of favor ? Was it sonically meaningless ?
Have speaker makers dropped it ? Do us owners of biwire built speakers need to resort to jumpers or aftermarket biwire cables now ?

First off we should all listen before buying.  I was all bout MIT when I had my Quicksilver/Proac system.  It was years. I'm actually shipping my 330 shotgun CVT cables out tomorrow as I finally decided to sell them.  Bruce B actually rewired my preamp with his internal wire many years ago.  He among others make some great cables.  No doubt, but I liked the AQ cables much better with my Vandersteen/Ayre system.  I did listen to bi wire vs single vs the bi wire within ONE cable.  I wasn't able to afford the second set of Castle Rock to do a true bi wire, but I'm about to pull that trigger. I noticed a nice difference, however I also feel that upgrading components usually makes a bigger difference than upgrading cables (dollar per dollar).  For those who make a claim that bi wiring is BS, you have no credibility.  For you it obviously didn't work, but some systems are designed to be bi wired and it does make a nice difference.  

Dave, it's all good.  I do listen to Richard a lot.  He makes a ton of sense and I trust him.  That said, I have my own ears.  He and I seem to like similar sounds.  It wasn't like that years ago and I didn't want Vandersteens.  I listen differently now than I used to.  I have heard differences for years IRT bi wiring.  I have heard lesser cables with a true double run sound much better than a 5k single wiring with jumpers.  That's just me, but I'm sure a ton don't hear a difference.  
ctsooner, you are far to reasonable a person....how are we going to have an argument if you keep up this "level headed" response garbage:)
Dave, sorry, lol.  I've been called unreasonable by way too many over my lifetime, lol.  I can argue if you want, lol.  I often just hang out on the boards to find ridiculous comments by folks who have never been in a certain situation, but are more than willing to offer their professional advice, lol.  I'm not a professional, but at least I get out often to many places and listen to components so I have an idea of what I like and what I don't.  I just try not to forget that we all hear so differently.

Nutty.....I have been looking for speaker cables that could really do justice with my system......my headphones always sounded way better.  I had Cardas, Audioquest, WmLowe Signature, Wireworld, etc....all top of the line editions.  For the halibut, I was  recommended Clear Day Cables.   When I talked to Paul at Clear Day, he sent me an audition pair without charge...."just give it a listen" he told me.   The instant I heard them, it was a deal.  I got a bi-wire pair of his double shotgun and am really happy with the openness, the solid bass, the huge dynamics...all the right stuff.  Call Paul - no pressure- it just might be the cables you're looking for.  I'm just a happy customer...no ties at all to Clear Day.
It's always better to read and accept the opinions of  experts regarding the sound of your gear rather than listening to the gear yourself and deciding what you like. What you like could be in fact not what many of the experts like, and thusly not good for you or the world in general. The safest thing to do is to NOT listen to your system at all as you could be at risk of enjoying something that isn't actually enjoyable, and that, clearly, is not worth the risk.
