Replacing Jumpers = Bi-wiring??

I've only tried this on one pair of speakers which are B&W 802's. Biwiring definitely sounds better on these than changing the jumpers. Why, I don't know.

Hi! I have replaced my stock copper jumpers that came with my Mission speakers with 6 inch strands of speakers cables. I was using symo speaker cables and have some short lenghts left over. What I did was solder the lengths to some bananas and used it to bridge the hi/lo of the speakers. Sounded better. However, I am currently using Pure Silver Sound Pure Silver Bridge for bi-wire speakers from Mr. Frank Steele. It's made of pure silver and it sounded clearer than my D.I.Y effort.

Upgrading the stock jumpers will make an improvement, but not as much as bi-wiring in most cases. It is speaker and amplifier dependent, but the theory behind biwire is that the speaker cable resistance reduces interaction between the high and low frequencies. There are some bi-wires that use different wire for the high and low frequencies to optimize the performance to the high and low drivers.
