Is it necessary to use the same cable brand and model for bi-wiring??

I have a pair of Wharfdale Denton 80th Anniversary  speakers that can be bi-wired. I have read many pro and cons about bi-wiring improving the sound quality.  I still like to give it a shot, but do not want to use an expensive pair of speaker cables to satisfy my curiosity  All comments and recommendations welcomed

OK, if I don’t want to use cable for tone control, what do you suggest? How do I connect my amp to the speakers?   Bluetooth?

You should select cables that compliment your speakers then biwire with identical cables.

By selecting cables, isn't that tone control?   You prefer tone the selected cable over others?  Every cable has a sonic characteristic?

Yes, all cables have a "character". 
What might be a wonderful and expensive cable might not be the best choice for certain speakers or amplifier. 
Find a good dealer who is familiar with your speakers and electronics and ask for their advice. 
Also, Music Direct sells a variety of cables at various price points and you can try them for a few weeks and have the option to return them if you aren't happy with the sound. 
Thats what dealers are for.
