Speaker Sound

Hi.

I hope that I do not sound dumb asking this. I just connected a pair of PSB Stratus Mini's to a Krell S-300i without jumpers or biwire  speaker cable. Is it common to have a dull lifeless sound without jumpers or biwire speaker cable?

When I connect to the woofer only it is a faint crispy treble sound. When I connect to the tweeter there is a dull sound.

Will Biwire speaker cables remedy this? Can I expect full sound?

Yes. But put the jumpers back in, in the mean time. Just listening to the woofer has got to sound terrible.

It is awful. When I connect to the woofer it is a faint tinny sound. When I connect to the tweeter, the sound is fuller but flat and dead.

Do I need jumpers with Biwire speaker cable? Will the cables be enough?
