I know there is nothing more required with jumpers in place but with them in place the rationale of the bi-wire is not being implemented - at least according to the most common reasoning behind it which seems to be separating the low and high frequency content in the speaker cable run.
As I said before what is funny is how many supposed "bi-wire speaker cables" don't even implement this supposed advantage. Not sure how many do and how many just have 4 pig tails on the speaker end drawn out of two "standard" wires as if they are oblivious of this reasoning, although it is then "cheaper"

The rationale is to sell more wire.
But of course even the speaker manufacturers are complicit in making the dual posted units - like I said even in "mid-fi" speakers like my Paradigm Studios and the lay out the rationale in the instruction manual and all - in general they do not benefit from the sales of speaker cabling - unless you stand back and look at the whole "hifi" ecosystem
I notice that Stereophile doesnt spend much time on "wires" unlike I think Absolute Sound. I think Mejas wrote some stuff to say Audioquest was better than "lamp cord" but that is mostly it

As I have said before, it is in their financial interest to support their dealers by providing for biwiring. However, it is also in their interest to provide it as an option for buyers who want it. Besides, I see no downside to having/trying the option if it appeals.
