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?

Priz, I also, use the mapleshade jumpers. I have them on the newform ribbons and between the peerless bass, midbass drivers. They would appear to make the speakers more integrated IMO, always a challange with cones and ribbons. They just look like thin copper foil but can they every pass musical info....
