Biwiring make any sense?

@phusis ... but ultimately I prefer using similar amps top to bottom actively (class A/B solid state as is), which is to say all the way down into the subs region to aid overall coherency and tonal imprinting.

Tonality is very much founded in conjunction with the lower octaves, the extent of which actually surprised me, and the problem with shifts in tonal balance using different amps is potentially exacerbated with a combination of very different amp topologies/principles...

I completely agree if we are discussing vertical bi-amping, where one amp powers one speaker and the second amp powers the other; in this case, the amps would need to be matched to achieve the best performance.

In my case of horizontal bi-amping, which I believe is the context here, I was fortunate that the low-wattage class A amp I use for the tweeters has good synergy with the speakers. Although the class A amp lacks gain control, both the class A/B and D amps I’ve used for the woofers have gain controls, allowing me to fine-tune the loudness until tonal balance between the high and low ends is achieved. I’m pleased with the sound, though I believe this experience might be dependent on the specific speakers and amplifiers used, making it difficult to generalize.

The only thing a designer could do to facilitate his speakers being bewired would be to have a switch disabling internal jumpers.  As far as a circuit diagram would be concerned that wouldn't make any difference, just a physical connectivity difference.  Considering the jumper mechanism that "might" make some  sonic difference.  Does that make any sense?

Maybe it has something to do with fields generated by different frequencies over a longer distance, which are usually 6-8' .

I thought this got beaten to death on some thread in the past.

Your speaker is a non-linear impedance/resistance and the cable also has resistance. Even when you apply a linear voltage to a driver, the current flow is nonlinear as a result.

By biwiring, you are moving the true ground point directly to the amplifier from the speaker’s negative terminal. You remove the inter-driver non-linearity/cross contamination (back and forth) that occurs through the crossover between the different drivers (tweeter, woofer, etc) mentioned above.

Maybe, if you had some crappy speaker with a single full range driver, it doesn’t matter (not applicable). On a regular speaker with multiple drivers, it does matter though the audibility impact of biwiring can vary due to the driver and crossover design.

Low info dudes may claim bi-wiring does nothing. Truth is...it actually does something...that you may or may hear. If you didn’t hear it, great for you.... don’t bi-wire and do whatever, save yourself the cash for an extra cable. Return the extra cable and get your money back.

Good luck.

I have Vandersteens also..,.I bi-wire, bi-amp and have everything in balanced mode.
