Please, please help


I have my speakers biwired using quality shotgun cables. My system was not sounding very good which is typical but sometimes sounds wonderful. Tonight I was checking my connections and accidentally pulled a set of the banana terminals from the speakers. No change in the sound at all. What is going on? The shorting straps on the speakers have been removed. These are quality McIntosh sl6 speakers and anthem pre/pro and amp. Please, please help.

Did you buy the speakers new? Reason I ask is that it is very easy on many speakers to remove the binding post panel and swap the internal wires going to the posts such that the all feed off of a single set of binding posts. This is done to get the metal strap out of the picture when running a single wire, and running this way can sound better then running bi-wired as well, at least it did for a set of Energy speakers I used to own. Pop the panel off for a look-see if you're sure all the drivers are working, you may even have a wire loose, or as mentioned, a dead driver....
