Replacing Jumpers = Bi-wiring??


On biwirable speakers, will replacing the jumpers with a quality cable give the same improvement in performance as biwiring? I am getting conflicting advice, and would appreciate any input you might have.
Thanks!

Bi wire is not better as bluenose stated i went from double run of Audioquest midnight to single run with jumpers and then to single wire.The sound is best with single wire.Speak to a speaker MFG he will tell you where its at.There are many high end speakers that come single wire and the designers will tell you they sound best this way.
If you must jumper,use a piece of the same cable as your main speaker cable.
Megasam,Why are some of the best highend speakers in the market place single wire.If bi wire was what you claim why would these great sounding speakers be single wired.
BIWIRE IS THE POOR MANS ATTEMPT AT THE SONIC BENIFIT OF BI AMPING.
megasam Biwire set up is for people who want to BIamp a speaker.Bi amping offers great sonic benifit.Bi wire does not.
The other thing is many speaker MFG have put this on just to say they can biwire.They know it has no sonic benifit but its one of those things that mfg a has it so mfg b better have it or there could be a perception that he is not as current.
