Lookie lookie, I'z got a rebuttal on a website...I've been gradiated...I am no longer a "objectivist""
I'z is a "subjectivist"!!!!
Eat your heart out, Richard Bassheart Green.....move over.

Here's the link to the discussion of biwiring.Cheers, John
How can I possibly trust any of your math if you can't even get my name right?At 30 cents per foot an additional 30 feet of wire only added $9 to the cost of my stereo ... and I wrote it off my taxes that year.
The theory is that back EMF from a large woofer motor will affect the tweeter less if there is more resistance (more wire) between the woofer and tweeter ... or something like that. After buying wire, and bi-wiring, Barry Manilow started to sound just like Frank Sinatra.

No, your name is bassheart..period..sheesh, didn't you get the memo?Math? What's that? Z'at sumptin to pick up chicks with?? ""Zat a slide rule in ya pocket, or ya happy ta see me??""

Sheesh, I don't buy that theory atall atall..where'd ya hears dat??

When y'all went down to bye the buywire, didja buychance, bye extra?
Cheers, John.
By the way, who did your hair? It looks like a Hershey's Kiss! On the cartoon, anyway. :)
Basing my judgement on our past conversations on this forum it is obvious too me I am missing something here. For crying out loud you called me on some Maxwell current/magnetic thing IIR that I was slightly off on a while back, meaning your pretty much what I would consider "cable guy" in the extreme.Here I go anyway. It's kinda like a disease or something...
Nice analysis but where is at least a series inductor? I think there is pretty clear evidence suggesting that the inductor/s can have ~ some audible effect depending on length to the especially sensitive, and seems to roll off upper audio band signals pretty obviously on measurements. I think the point is biwiring is going to get you more conductor material which parallels the R and the L. Of course it is silly to think that having parallel conductors is somehow better than just putting all the effort into one big cable that has the same amount of conductor material as the paralleled conductors of choice.
Now I'm probably a little too deaf so I'll have to defer to higher quality ear setups than mine for the effects of the typical parasitic capacitance/s on my speaker cords sound quality though. It may be that it matters less for me since I route my speaker wires near the wall/ceiling junction using plastic hangers and am guessing am scarcely able too couple to any of the fairly distant EM conductors by any of the capacitive elements present other than of course the return conductor....unless plasterboard and wooden house framing is a concern?!?!? Doh! just remembered the framing and drywall nails. I hope the contractor way back in '62 that built this place used a high quality dielectric nail. hahah
It's a funny story. Over at AH, there was a discussion of biwiring. I produced an analysis which confirms that biwiring alters the dissipation loss in the wires in a not so obvious way...it changes the instantaneous loss, but not the RMS.Gene asked Jim Leseuf to review the hogwash I was spewin. So that page I linked to was his response.
Unfortunately, Jim read through my analysis too fast, and missed the salient issue. So in effect, he constructed a strawman argument and provided a rather accurate analysis to refute his strawman. Which was not my argument. In point of fact, I stated within my posts somewhere, that the construct he used (a single wire feeding a single load) removed the dissipation modulation, which is the biwire benefit..A good analysis, but not of what I stated.
I believe what Jim did was unintentional, from what I see of his website, he is a class act.
I've e-mailed him to discuss the issue, but no response yet...it's only been one day..he probably has a life..:-)
have you seen the Devil on your bed since your conversion? :-)
JN - I've been gradiated...I am no longer a "objectivist""
I'z is a "subjectivist"!!!!What took so long? You finally decided to *listen* instead of staring at all those graphs?
BTW, I'm fairly certain Richard has Bassnutz rather than a Bassheart.
cheers,
AJ
The threshold for disproving something is higher than the threshold for saying it, which is a recipe for the accumulation of bullshit - Softky

Ya know, who can you trust...David Hedison told me his name was "bassheart"..
