Bi amping JAMO S 606

[admin_exported]

Dear Reader,

Im looking for some decent cable to bi amp my speakers.However all (or at least most) advertisements talk about taking full advantages of Bi-Wiring .Does this also mean they are suitable for Bi-amping or should I take 2 seperate "normal " speaker cables ?

As an example,I am now connected to my Onkyo by means of QED Silver anniversary XT .Should i take another pair of these,or should i go for the QED Original bi-wire MKII or QED Silver anniversary XT bi-wire.? I need new cables anyway,present ones will be to short for my new layout

Awaiting your reply,

Kind Regards,

Marc

Given that your current cables need replacing, buying a dedicated biwire type would seem to make a lot of sense if you wish to biwire the speakers.

Thank you Andrew,

But I'm not trying to Bi-wire but to Bi Amp : Doesn't this make a difference ?

If I order Bi Wire cable it goes from 2 ends to 4 ends : this makes no sence to me if i want to Bi Amp

Kind Regards,

Marc

Just use 'normal cable' - 2 ends to 2 ends if that makes any sense....

Yes, exactly the same. Just make sure the biwire cable is terminated as 4-to-4 - ie with two positive and two negative plugs on each end.

You need to purchase specific biwire cable which allows you to both biwire and bi-amp!

QED Silver Anniversary biwire cable and Chord Carnival Silverscreen biware cable are possibles.

They have 4 connections at each end; 4 for the amps (2 for the integrated/power and the other 2 for the power HF/LF connections) and the 4 at the speaker end (2 for the HF and 2 for the LF connections - but please remember to remove any jumper bars/cables that may be in place).

You can, if you want, buy 4 lots of normal 2 wire speaker cable but obviously that'll cost more, be more messy and fiddly.
