What is the difference between Bi-Wiring & Bi-Amping speakers?
Bi-Wiring and Bi-Amping refer to two different methods of connecting amplifiers and receivers to Hi Fidelity or Home Theater speakers. In order to Bi-amp or Bi-wire a system the speakers must have separate terminals for the Tweeters (treble) and the Woofers (bass). These terminals usually have a jumper bar that connects both the treble and bass sections of the speaker together for normal operation. This jumper must be removed to Bi-amp or Bi-Wire a speaker. With the Bi-Wiring method, each speaker is connected via two sections of speaker wire from the receiver/power amp to the treble and bass inputs of the each speaker. In a Bi-Amp configuration each speaker is connected to two separate amplifiers for each speaker, one for the treble and one for the bass.
