Biwire jumpers as speaker cables?


Assuming that I have monoblocks for power amps and they can be placed fairly close to speakers, can biwire jumpers be used as speaker cables?

Thx for your opinions.

If they are long enough, yes. I have some 1 M Siltech F 12 ribbons that I have used both for mono blocks and jumpers. My 3" 14 gauge solid silver wire, not so much. Since I have seen everything from bell wire to welding cable used by someone somewhere as speaker cable there is no reason you couldn't do it. A good idea? Depends on the jumpers and your system configuration.
yes, that should work. Frankly, i am amazed you can get the jumper to reach...the terminals must be...what?...within 5 inches of each other? Super-close!

(BTW, I happen to have a pair of Transparent Audio Reference jumpers which I used with my SF Guarneris (since have sold the G's on)...but kept the Jumpers. If interested, feel free to email.)
Why not ? IMHO though I think 7 ft is about the minimum for any given cable to sound its best.
