Any advantages to bi-wiring speakers vs. single

I've read this about Silverlines. I'm curious why the speaker maker would make his speakers biwireable but recommend against it.

Because some folks will want to do it it anyway. You have to give customers what they want. If you don't, you have cut your sales potential way down. Just my take on it.

Some people like incoherency I suppose...but there does seem to be a little trend among other speaker makers to supply one set of posts and make a statement about it. I think the option is nice, and gives the listener something to play around with...my friend who turned me on to Preludes uses 'em biwired, but then he's incoherent most of the time anyway.

Tpreaves, that makes no sense to me. Why would a customer want to do something the speaker designer recommends against? The sales drop in my mind would only be for people who have biwire cable already and want to stick with it.

I read the downloadable Silverline manual last night which states that biwiring is recommended. Also, I contacted Alan last night regarding biwiring as I just bought Silverlines (and am biwiring them); he emailed back and wrote to do what sounded best. I think the latter statement wins. Perhaps his comments to Wolfman were specifically for the Preludes. At any rate, all of this is hijacking this thread. Sorry, OP

Why does anybody do what they do? This is just one of those unanswerable questions in life. Remember, we are talking about a bunch of kooks here!!!!

My conversation the Yun was only about the Preludes...and I confirmed his thoughts when I tried it both ways. I've biwired other speakers and it seemed to improve 'em so I was actually surprised.
