Bi-wiring Part 2: The Cable Conundrum

[Roger K]

The bi-wiring scheme that is wired discreetly to HF and LF sections potentially has more insertion loss to the woofer because the LF section contains more of the typical music spectrum (power-wise) but must recieve it through double the impedance vs if the cables are connected at both ends.

I didn't read through all the nause, and was unable to open and look at the circuit diagram, but I am assuming that the diagram doesn't go back far enough inside the receiver to account for the distance from the actual AMP circuit to where the cable is EVENTUALLY split into 2, whether that be near the amp terminals or the speaker terminals.... if you have sufficient gauge wire (mono) then bi wiring makes no sense. If you want experiment with the minimum gauge wire possible for mono/bi-wire, then I think it might...if the run was sufficiently long. my 2 cents.
