I think Bi-Amp is the better reality. In my collage days early 90"s I had two Adcom GFA amps. The big 545 and 535 100 watts and 60 watts. I had a HK pre-amp and both amps driving a large set of Mission Speakers. The big adcom powered the lows and the 60 did the highs. I was great and a huge difference. Loud boy could this go loud and when you only 21-23 in school Loud is good. Good time...

All I can say as a designer is there’s no benefit to biwiring unless you’re using undersized cable gauge in the first place. There’s even a technical disadvantage when it cones to electrical bridge damping which can technically result in slight (although inaudible) distortion increase. Back emf has nothing to do with it and is not a correct assumption. Like many such things it’s basically an urban myth and marketing gimmick. By the way,I’m not “shouting at you in the comments” I’m talking sense and trying to speak from a standpoint if professional knowledge and have taken the tine and trouble to respond.👍

Even though there is no auditory difference I still bi-wire because I like the connection better. I use 14/4 Canare cable which is really a single cable with internal twisted pairs. The short 10' run makes no difference in resistance but, the whole connection feels more solid on both speaker and amplifier ends, plus I eliminate the joining buss bar.

Never been a believer of bi-wiring, you're right Phil, it was a fad that people bought into, including me who had TRI-wired Linn Kaber's, at one time. Also, being a cynic, it wouldn't surprise me if deals were done between speaker and cable manufacturers. Any bi-wire speakers I've bought I've always replaced the crappy brass plated links with decent wired links, as you also pointed out. Spending more on a decent single speaker cable will often cost less than a bi-wire cable or two pairs of cables and give superior results. Higher end speaker manufacturers are now thankfully producing only single wire products.

bi-wiring can still benefit in your system, it depends on gauge of cable used and type of loudspeaker used but there can be a difference. to expalin it in electrical way do the following experiment use an ac outlet in your house connect a wire on one end and on the other side two incandesent lamps of 50 watts Imagine dat these are your low and high drivers (ie bass, tweeter) measure the voltage on these lamps and write it down. Now change one lamp (bass driver) and connect it to a hairdryer (1000 watts or more) now measure the voltage again, you will notice a reasonable drop in voltage on both the hair dryer and the incandesent lamp of 50 watts Now do the experiment again but this time bi-wire (two sets of cables from the same outlet) and measure again, there is your answer Knowing that some kind of loudspeakers can have rather extreme impedances in the bass drivers some even from nominal 8 Ohm to 1 Ohm at certain resonance frequencies therefore bi-wiring can sure make a difference For the audio test use low cost cable and play the song dire straits "private investigations starting at 3.55 you have a base line a hi hat and a soft synthesizer at the background Play it at some louder level and you will notice a slight drop of the sinthesizer and hi hat. Once again redo the experiment and bi-wire the speaker and play it again.

The main advantage of biwiring is doubling the gauge of wire without using unduly thick wire. Thick wire can be awkward to bend into place at the terminal. I don't like terminals on wire. Biwiring allows the thickest possible gauge wire that fits without needing to be trimmed down, times two.

I might be wrong. For bi-wiring to really work as advertised the high and low frequency must be separated already in my amp, before the signal goes out, otherwise it is still sending a full range signal to the tweeter and woofer without any separation. Maybe there a some magic cables capable of doing it - who knows.
@rogerwebb7501Ай бұрын
A common misconception! In fact the highs and lows separate where ever the 'split point' is. In a standard single pair system the full frequency signal current travels along the wires from the amplifier terminals to the speaker terminals and on to the crossover where the signal splits and goes to the tweeter high pass filter and subsequently to the tweeter. Similarly the bass signal current diverges at the split point and goes through the woofer filter to the woofer. In a biwire system the split point is taken back from inside the speaker to the amplifier end, so the treble content travels along the wire to the tweeter terminals and the bass content travels along the wire to the woofer terminals onf the loudspeaker. This IS how it works....ignore videos that tell you otherwise!!!......and there are plenty made by people who aren't qualified to make them!!!! Does biwiring make a difference?.....I don't know!!......but I do know how crossovers work!!!

Back in the bi-wiring days, Dynaudio used BNC connectors for most of their speakers (as well as binding posts) but positively discouraged bi-wiring. It always surprised me but, having used their Ocos coaxial speaker cable, I now understand why. It’s all to do with the resistance of the speaker cable (coaxial apparently is far far better for longer lengths). Given their high quality crossover circuits, bi-wiring just isn’t necessary.
@Ultrafrozen Жыл бұрын
The binding post connector straps are fine over this short distance, they probably have more contact area than bare wire or banana plugs. Ever measure the wire gauge inside the speaker, cross-over, etc? Heavier gauge is required to transmit over long distance to keep resistance down.
@markcarrington8565 Жыл бұрын
Hi Phil, not convinced about the potential for back emf causing an issue as the crossover would filter it out of the opposite drivers. The theory is that the low frequency signal carries far more current, which has an effect on the much lower level high frequency part of the signal. You are correct in saying that bi-wiring uses two pairs of wires which can both be connected to a single pair of binding posts on the power amp. It doesn’t require a pair of power amps as that would as the name suggests be bi-amping. No doubt you’ll show the difference with one of your splendid diagrams in the next video. In the meantime, here’s my attempt to explain what is going on in the wires of a bi-wire setup. The separation of the signal down the two pairs of wires is achieved by the crossover filter inside the speaker. This is totally counter intuitive; the assumption being that because the cables both connect to the same binding posts on the amp it must be the same signal. The reason it works is because the speakers are driven not by the voltage across the terminals but the current. The current is inversely proportional to the resistance and the crossover presents a resistive load which varies with frequency. On the bass driver, the inductor in the circuit presents a low equivalent resistance to low frequencies and as frequency rises the resistance also rises. The current does the opposite, hence the current in the bass circuit is only present at low frequencies and not present at higher frequencies above the crossover point. Similarly, for the treble, a capacitor achieves the corresponding effect for the tweeter, protecting it from being blown. Effectively, this reduces crosstalk between the high current bass frequencies and the lower current mid/high frequencies. Some folks in some systems hear a difference, others do not. With bi-amping exactly the same thing happens, only now you are separating the signal all the way back to the pre-amp output. As the power supplies are now free to only power part of the frequency spectrum and the effects are magnified. More people hear the difference when bi-amping. Using different rated power amps for this is not advisable if you want to maintain a consistent balance in the sound throughout the frequency spectrum for different volume settings. To answer another question on this thread, bi-wiring and bi-amping use the exact same crossover components as when not in bi-wire mode, hence the crossover point is not impacted at all. Hope this helps. For those who remain unconvinced or are unwilling to shell out for double the length of speaker wire, I agree with Phil that you should at least replacing the nasty plate connectors on the back of most speakers with a very short length of your favourite speaker cable.
@Ineedtotakeabreak Жыл бұрын

@ReferenceFidelityComponents Жыл бұрын
This is not correct. Biwiring connects signals to a single pair of output binding posts on the output of the power amp circuit and splits them into high and low runs except that BOTH pairs of biwire cables do in fact deal with the exact same full frequency signal and voltage, which is filtered by the corresponding crossover filter. It’s no different to considering the single wire run to the crossover where the full voltage and signal are split and presented to each side of the crossover filter. All Biwiring does is move that point back to the amp output. The only possible way it can affect sound is if the dpeaker cable is reactive with frequency enough to act as a filter or such that loop resistance/impedance becomes significant enough to affect things like damping factor or filter hf due to very high capacitance or inductance. The simple answer is that using a karge enough wire gauge which is not of highly reactive geometry in the first place will totally negate any perceived advantage of Biwiring. Engineers who design this stuff understand this but try getting some dealers or enthusiasts to believe what a design engineer says is often more difficult than shifting people from their own pseudo scientific belief systems unfortunately.

since both pairs are connected togheter at the amplifier end, the only chance to spot differences is in the worst cases scenario, where cables are really long and gauges are really small. In that scenario the normal and BW connection types loses their electrical equivalence due to cable impedance becoming significant. In theory this helps BW to better "isolate" the 2 crossover sections, but also wastes power and looses damping.

That was like pulling teeth. The reason you bi-amp is for more power. Take Polk RTia9 Towers, for example. If you are running these with the jumpers ON with 90w/ch they are dull. If you Bi-amp with a proper 200w P/ch then they really come alive. You can also do that with MONO BLOCKS, which assign the exact amount of demand that each driver requires. It makes a much smoother, more efficient distribution of power. No, you won't see a difference if you are still working with 90w P/ch if the surround backs are assinged with the internal processor. The surround back use so little power that they can drive the highs and high mids on the tower, but that still only leaves a peak of 90 watts to your low mids and sub bass on the towers. Bi-amping will only be noticedable of proper power amps are added from the pre outs of your AVR.

Of course its worth it, your halving the cables impedance and separating the drivers frequencies at the amps output, on long lengths of cable of 12ft and over biwiring is the way to go, same principle as adding dropper wires to a model railway, without them the train will slow down after about 20feet therefore you need to push more voltage to make the train run properly, yes model railways run on AC today to carry the digital information to the decoders the rule is simple: copper cable for bass silver cable for treble when one cable tries to do everything thats when the problems arise silver cable carries high frequencies way more efficiently than copper copper cable is pretty hopeless at frequencies above 14khz biiring will cut distortion by half, thats its whole purpose. oil and water do not mix speakers work on AC not DC thats why biwiring works, if it was DC then yes it would be pointless. basically 2 sets of cable doing their job that theyre intended to. Its pointless biwiring on mini systems like the denon stuff because their speakers are not biwire compatible as theyre designed to be used no more than 5feet away from the amp, but for long lengths its a definate YES, in any case just do it, speaker cable is cheap even on mini systems inside the speakers will be both silver and copper cabling going to the drivers (if its a high quality hifi that is) In fact bi-amping is useless and destroys sound quality unless you have 2 finely tuned identical amplifiers with their volume levels and DC offsets set up 100% perfect. bi-amping is a complete pain in the backside and rarely gives good results.

The signal path is NOT identical! In the single wire system the full frequency signal goes through the speaker wires to either the tweeter terminals and this is the split point, so the bass goes through the jumper wires/plates to the woofer terminals, or, the single wires go to the woofer terminals and this becomes the split point, and the treble signal current flows up the jumper wires/plates to the tweeter terminals. In the biwire system taking off the jumper wires/plates separates the tweeter crossover filter from the woofer crossover filter and the split point is stretched back to the amplifier terminals. The treble component of the signal current therefore travels along the wire connected to the tweeter terminal and the bass component along the wire to the woofer terminals.

@@solitaire5142 I was being rather modest in my claim of 54 years as an electronics engineer - I actually studied electronics starting in 1966, but didn't become qualified til 1970. However I grasped the principles of Ohm's Law as a child, say 12 years old. '.......effectively only lengthening the stock jumper cables. Nothing changes, the signal path is identical.' is not quite right. If you lengthen the 'stock jumper cables' you merely lengthen the path for either the treble content (if the speaker cable between the amp and speakers is connected to the woofer terminals), or the bass content (if the speaker cable is connected to the tweeter terminals). In this case the whole signal current still travels along the speaker cable between amp and speaker. The whole point of biwiring is that the point at which the treble and bass content diverges is dragged back to the amplifier end, to do this you disconnect the jumper cables/plates. The problem I have with most of the comments on these videos is that they tend to try and 'prove' that there can be no sonic difference because there is no physical/electrical difference in the two modes. As I've shown above, there is a physical difference, and therefore, by extension a possible (at least theoretical) electrical difference. I don't believe there is a sonic benefit in the biwire configuration (my own Quad 2812 electrostatics don't have a conventional crossover, therefore not 'biwirable') but trying to 'prove' that biwiring can't work because 'the signal path is identical' is unscientific. If you want a perfect example of an unscientific approach to the subject have a look at M Zilch's two KZbin videos.

I have four A inputs on my integrated amp and four B inputs. I can put other four - and four + inputs in the A speaker connects and the same in the B connects, BUT some people advise to combine the two negatives from one speaker into one banana plug and input that in one amp negative post and the same for the positives (this is for one speaker), so I would be using only two posts for each speaker at the amp end. My questions is: is this the same as using all four separate banana plugs going into the four A speaker posts (i.e. the positive and negatives on the top posts - tweeters - on one speaker and the positives and negatives - woofer - on the bottom posts on the other speaker)?
