  jumpers versus golden plates
Does anybody have experience with kicking out the golden plates connecting the (bi-wiring) terminals on speakers and put in jumpers instead? I was told that if you don't bi-amp or bi-wire and subsequently have the plates in place you are accepting a major sound deterioration. Jumpers would be the solution.I checked with Kimber Select and the jumpers are extraordinary expensive regarding their very short length....Opinions please?

One other idea you might consider. Remove the box that
houses your binding posts, connect the high and low freq.
wires together on the lower binding post. (BE sure to mark
which wire goes where.) Depending on how the wires are
terminated, relatively easy to do.

Positive + (high/low) to lower positive binding post. Negi-
tive - (high/low) to lower negative binding post. Eliminates
one set of binding post and any jumper wires. Will sound
different, better or worst...your call! Many ways to experi-
ment. Bill
