Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

I've bi-wired about 50% of the speakers I've owned

Until recently, I bi-wired my current speakers with 2x Kimber 4TC. Now I run them single wire with considerably more expensive Tellurium Q cables. I have experienced gains from bi-wiring with some speakers, particularly with the Focus Audio speakers I used to own, and not so much with others.

I've haven't said, anywhere in this thread, that bi-wiring doesn't make a difference. A bi-wiring configuration is a different circuit than a single wire configuration, and there is a real difference in impedance, particularly in the crossover region. I've pointed out multiple reasons why bi-wiring may produce different results.

My original point is that Richard Vandersteen is wrong about WHY bi-wiring makes a difference. His hypothesis is not physical, and it's also not necessary since there are other basic explanations for the difference.

The problem with this thread is that you've been reflexively defending Vandersteen without really reading or understanding my posts and without demonstrating any understanding of basic electronics. When you wrote stuff like "How can there be bass frequencie content of the HF cable?" after a half-page of arguing the point, it became obvious to me that there is really no point in continuing further. So please stop bothering me.
