Using bi wired speaker cable with speakers set up for single i.e. Two binding posts n

**vinyljunky** · 09-03-2017, 21:10

At the moment I use atlas mavros bi wire I was using it with my Wilson benesch actors so no problem they are bi wire enabled four binding posts I have new speakers now these are single wire enabled two binding posts.I spoke to the engineer at atlas and he said the solid wire was the high frequency and the multi stranded wire was the low frequency at the moment I have the high frequency cable in the positive binding post and the low frequency in the negative binding post and the other two plugs taped off I wonder if I'm wired up correctly

If you can't connect both red to the red binding post and both black to the black binding post then I would use the 'low frequency' multi stranded pair, not mix the two.

I can wire both red to the red and black to black the binding post has a hole so I can attach there and the knurled knob has a hole on its surface so I can attach another plug there apparently you can take these speakers back to the factory and get them to add another 2 terminals for bi wiring cheers for the help boys always appreciated

Hi Steve it might help if you could take a photo or two and post your predicament. I sort of understand having been to yours last night and seeing them in the flesh but I am no speaker boffin haa haa don't worry there's plenty of people on the aos who will help
BTW CRACKING SPEAKERS good choice

Best way would be to get both the single and multistrand into the one binding post, if possible

Pete I can wire both red terminations to the one binding post so no sweat sorted now

Yep Martin that's pretty much the direction I would take
