What is Bi-Wiring?
Some speakers have two sets of input terminals, two black and two red. Using the Master 2.4 or the Vortex cable both these connections can be connected to a single output of an amp. The benefits of bi-wiring tend to vary dependant on the amp and speakers. So whilst in theory bi-wiring should always be beneficial in practice the difference may be subtle. Check with your speaker manufacturer on this.
Bi-Wiring is the use of two pairs of cables between each amplifier channel and the associated loudspeaker. The crossover in a “Bi-Wireable” speaker has two separate earth and or signal paths. By keeping these paths separate all the way back to the amplifier retrieval of fine detail can be improved. Simply remove the links connecting both positive and negative binding posts together, and run two identical lengths of cable to each speaker from the amplifier output terminals. Special “Bi-Wire” cable is available for a tidier installation.
Bi-wiring is where the crossover inside the speaker has been separated into it’s HF and LF sections, and separate pairs of connecting terminals provided to access those separate sections independently. Normally, the LF and HF crossover sections are in parallel, connected internally to the same single pair of binding posts. For single cable use, a set of jumpers is provided to bridge the terminal pairs, paralleling the separated crossover sections outside the cabinet instead of inside. Then, separate speaker cables are run from the same amp output to these separated pairs of terminals at the speaker.
