IME, bi-wiring makes a huge difference, especially re separation and depth (hope I've used correct parlance?).
However, my amp effectively has two sets of speaker outputs - something to do with compatibility with a power amp? - and I have both SP1 and SP2 selected/on with each bi-wire cable configured 4-out > 4-in (again, hope I've used correct parlance?).
TBH, when configured with conventional single-strand cable and SP1-only setup the A70 was rather average - the SP1/SP2 + bi-wire option is a night and day improvement, it seems to come alive.
Then again, I used to have an Arcam Alpha, 1987 vintage, which had conventional 2-plug speaker outputs, and bi-wiring also made a discernible difference - a very cost-effective upgrade IMHO. For example, I experimented with QED's cheapo Original Bi-wire and 2-strand Silver Anniversary and the former had much better separation and depth compared to the latter.
Although I'm sure that the Naysayers will be here soon...
