Best bi-wire speaker cables under $1000


I have a Bryston 4BST amp, Bryston BP 25 preamp and I am looking to upgrade my Monster speaker cable. I do not even know where to start these days. My main listening is vocals, specifically female and jazz. Any ideas out there in the Audio world? Your input is greatly appreciated.

Sean,

Is it possible for Bi-wiring a speaker to cause an extra frequency dip? For Instance a 2-way might be crossed over
at 2800 would the Bi-wiring add a dip at 600 or so?

I hope the question makes sense? and i would appreciate
your reply.

Thanks,

Steve
Depending on the design of the speaker, the individual cables used and how the amplifier loads into the various combos, i wouldn't say it was impossible.

I'm guessing that this is what you experienced when you tried bi-wiring with no other changes being made at the same time ? Sean

Sean,

Yes im getting an unexpected dip (its actually at 800hz)
my in-room response is +/- 3db worst case.. above 80hz except for 2 spots one at 800hz and one at 2600hz. Now this is with the RS digital meter and 1/3 octave test CD. I have found the RS digital meter to be very unreliable. For instance I used the Infinity RAMBOS (better than 1/3 octave)
measurment and found the RS off by up to 5db on the bottom.
What i havent done is un-biwire and test again.

Thanks,

Steve
Sean,

Sorry for the mutated response on my last post.. I was running out the door to go get my son.

The most important thing i didnt mention is.. i have
never measured this system without bi-wire so i
dont know for sure.

Can i just unhook one of the sets of wires at the speakers
and re-install the jumpers to test? Or do i have to take
the 2nd set off at the amp also?

Thanks,

Steve
sean, well said! i didn't think you were challenging audioengr it's not your style. i agree that we are all seeking the holy grail of musical truth and we all have our version of what that truth is. i was not challenging audioengr either he has the creds. i was just pointing out that as far as nautilus speakers go, bi-wire is the real deal.
