The rules for current flow must have changed when I wasn't looking.
At some point long long ago, a completed path for voltage or current, if you would rather, needed to be in place.... or still more simplified, one leg to bring it in on, and one for the return. Things are a bit more involved than that, but in essence that way worked then and now... though perhaps there is some new one conductor circuitry that actually can send and return voltage and current into a component or device without the need for another path to complete the circuitry.
The speakers which has but one leg of the two speaker cables attached to them and to the amp as well have to be there for them to work. For the amp to see an additional load as it were.
Hook one of the two supplied wires in the speaker cables to the speaker, whichever one doesn't really matter. Next, connect the same wire in the second speaker cable to the other speaker. Turn everything on and tell me you can then hear music or even sound. you won't be able to. I assure you.
That could work if a wire was connected to the unlike post on those speakers which were properly connected. That way only one wire would run from the amp to one pair of speakers, and the return path would come via a connection to the playing or properly wired pair.
The load presented to the amp by those speakers that are correctly connected is all the amp will see. The singular existing connection I mentioned still in force on the unused pair can not present any significant load or sufficient resistance, by virtue of having only one lead connected. That circuit is what is called, an 'open' circuit.
There is no completed path for the supplied energy for which to enter the single wire connected speakers, and then return to the amp.
Even if the still attached single leg/lead runs directly into a cap, the effect will be negligible. Unnoticeable. Harmless. No noise.
The note as to having things in parallel doesn't stand up either, as all paralell circuits that in fact operate share both a common or actually a neutral, most likely a ground somewhere, and one hot or feed line, and in EVERY CASE a return path for the signal needs to be in place physically. this can be either the aforementioned common/neutral, or in some instances a common chassis ground or actual ground.
Although you say there is a lets say feed line.... where is the common or return in the speakers which do not have their returns connected, and only one lead afixed to them?
They don't... so coincidentally, they can not be seen as a load by the amp.
it is just like a broken filament in a light buld... break that filament... conduction ceases as the circuit is then, interuppted. A light switch is the same premise.
A return path must be in place always for current flow. AC or DC... it matters not.
If the benighn characters in a speakers xover contributed to some ancillary effect it would be so small as to require a metering device that measured in the thousandths to determine the actual value of it. it would be so infinitesimal as to not be contributary audibly, or mechanically in my proposed premise.
Essentially removing one or both leads at the speakers binding posts will accomplish the same result.
My method is simply easier and quicker, and will not harm either componenetÂ… amp or speaker. If this connecting and disconnecting takes place while the amp is de-energized entirely.
When a person can figure out how to supply energy and return it using a single wire, it will revolutionize the electronic industry, and our world as we know it.
Talk about being 'single ended'! wow.
