Why do you think Bi-Wiring improves the sound ?
I now know of 3 people that have converted their speakers to be bi-wired but are not bi-amping .
What is your experience or opinion on why bi-wiring without bi-amping might or does sound better ?
I am concidering converting my speakers but I do not want to be fooled by the addition of increased AWG .

Historically this was never provided for bi-wiring, it was provided for Bi-Amping to reduce IM distortion and/or tailor amps to frequency range. Some consumers (and importantly also reviewers) seem to believe that it does, and prefer to buy loudspeakers which provide this option. Some manufacturers may therefore feel compelled to provide this option due entirely to these marketing pressures and little else. |
Hmm, nobody took a note of the posted link in this thread. That explains why bi-wire works and the science behind it. With measurements, graphs and all. Rather clever test track and method they have composed to use to be able to measure and show the effect of Intermodulation in a same cables single (wires) configuration and in bi-wire configuration. It is making a scientific proven difference but if it is detected by ear or not. That are determined by several OTHER factors. So audiophiles that are able to hear the benefits have some of the other factors aligned (room, speakers, gear and so on). Used test method:
I will paste the link again for this thread so it is easier to find than go back and try to figure out which one it is: https://www.qacoustics.co.uk/blog/2016/06/08/bi-wiring-speakers-exploration-benefits/ There is a couple of analogies that are used in the explanation. That is needed for me anyway to be able to grasp the complex working of it. That may need to be re read and let sink in. So we see that there is much more than some false logic that will cloud our thinking and make the individual more comfortable to put for example this specific effect aside. When it is not properly understood or known. |
