To Bi-wire or not?


I was using Tara Labs shot-gun cable to connect my Usher speakers, leaving the jumpers in. When I switched to Blue Jeans cable and true bi-wire and removed the jumpers. I hear no improvement, in fact i lost some bass. I contacted Blue Jeans to see about cable burn-in but they said burn-in is a myth. I have heard that bi-wiring a speaker with low end cable is better than using higher quality cable in non bi-wire application. Any thoughts?

Al, you may be right, anyhow on my infinity's it just sounds better with a single wire and it may be because the infinity's are on the bright side and the bi wire makes them sound even brighter or slightly more detailed, i was gonna run the bass test on my infinity ht towers but there is no option to bi wire them.

Don't quote me but on this but it maybe related to your question. I read back somewhere in a interview with Cardas that you want to run the smallest gauge possible( just above the min.) that is required by your speakers otherwise bass can be effected.

9 gauge is pretty big but not out of hand.

Your ears are the final truth, if single wire is the best way for your system, by all means stick to it.

Take all of this with a grain of salt but the only way to get a much better answer is try different Bi-wire cables and perhaps an amp but Right now it just apples & oranges.
