Bi-wire v's single with jumper leads.

Controversial here. I have not heard a difference.

Very system and cable dependent.

I compared single runs of Analysis Plus against biwire runs of the same and liked and disliked characteristics of each.

I also own Audience which at the time I bought them advised against biwiring.

It can get confusing and controversial indeed.

Biwiring has not sounded as coherent each time I've tried it. Single wiring for me.

you will get a million opinions on this subject, the view that it is very system dependant is accurate IMO.

Unfortunetly a pair of jumpers can be quite expensive so it ruins some of the advantage of using a single run of better wire

buy used try for yourself and sell at a minimal loss the wire you don't want.

fwiw: a nice way to hook up a single run of wire to a speaker with two sets of terminals is to hook up the + to the tweeter + and the - to the woofer - then use the jumpers as normal. this evens out any favoring of the drivers a normal hookup (both wires to the tweeter for instance) would bring.
