Single wiring bi-wireable speakers


Dumb question, but which binding posts should I use for connecting the speaker cables? Top or bottom? I've always bi-wired, so I've never thought about it. Anyway, I've put the gold grounding straps back in place.

(I've promised a fellow Gonner that I would A/B my Talon Khorus against Newform Research R645's. I want to use the same cables and since the Talons cannot be bi-wired, I'm running the tests with single runs of Kimber 8TC.)

This should be a one reply thread (unless someone starts throwing tomatoes at my innocence).

The biggest difference I think you'll hear is if you replace the bar jumper with jumpers made out of the Kimber, either 4TC or 8TC. There are differing opinions (not in audio you say?) about taking the cable to the upper(mid-tweets) or lower posts first, but I usually try to give the mid-tweets the best chance at producing the best sound. However, try it both ways to determine for yourself. Also, be sure to position the cable spades closest to the speaker, with the jumper spades closest to the post nut. It's a thought. Good luck.
