Hi, I am looking for your views on which you think are better. A good set of bi-wire cables or a better single cable run with a good set or jumper leads? Thank you.
3 years later I have changed my tune. I listen bi-wired now with great coherence. The difference is complimentary selection of cables for the high and low drivers.
Sorry everybody. I didn't realize it was a 3 yr old thread. There it was on the first page of topics. :)
Anyhow - I agree inductance and even the total impedance which includes capacitance as well, but given the level of discussion and the incorrect statements being made - I figured I'd keep it simple.
With my current SC, I find running 2 single runs yield the best performance over bi-wiring or single + jumpers. Most notably less conjestion in complex passages and more open sounding.
But with some of my previous SCs, it sounded best bi-wiring. Like everything, it's system and listener dependent.
