....is designed with bi-wire in mind.If the speaker has 2 physically seperate x-over circuits for the low and mid/high, then bi-wiring can be a very positive/solid attribute to the system, BUT, if the speaker is only pseudo Bi-wire ready where both x-over circuits are on the same PCB for instance, then the benefits of Bi-wiring are not as pronounced IME.
I have heard the difference between single run of higher quality cable with high quality jumpers and Bi-wire run with quality but lower priced cable and the benefits of the Bi-wire harness are much more coherence and harmonic integrity is better fleshed out BUT, this was on a true Bi-wire ready speaker. YMMV of course.
