"Reverse" Bi-Wire Question


I have two monoblocks that have dual sets of binding posts (1 channel of input only, but both sets of binding posts are active).

Is there any potential harm to my amps or speakers if I use bi-wire cables and attach the 4 terminations to the *amp* and the 2 terminations to the non-bi-wirable speakers?

If there is no potential harm, is there any potential benefit to such a configuration, or would it be advisable to switch to a single wire set up (my speakers are not bi-wireable).

Also make sure that the 2 binding posts are Not labeled with different Impedances. I used to have some Dared Monoblocks that had 3 posts per side - 8 Ohm, 4 Ohm, and Ground. If yours are like that - then there may be a problem.
