Any amplifier should be capable of biwiring, just as long as the speaker terminals are large enough to accept two speaker leads.

This might be of some help: http://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?5818-Basics-amp-General-Bi-amping-and-Bi-wiring

Lol... How long does it take you to copy and paste a link? :eyebrows:

Should be instant, and done before you hit the send button...

Simple, don't bi-wire. You're chasing your tail here - why get rid of a great amp just to do something that makes very little difference? Seems daft to me. If you want to change something, try different speaker cable. Just the one run tho'...

Why not fit some jumper cables? Or run the cable through both terminals.
You can keep the speakers and amp you already have.

Serious speaker-producers recommends not to biwire. Dynaudio, among others.

That's a bit of a sweeping statement!
Are you suggesting that B&W are not serious speaker producers?

I certainly bi-wire my B&W's, but then I bi-amp, so I have to....

Not presicely formulated by me. Sorry about that.

This is what I ment to say: Some serious producers advices not to bi-wire.

I regard B&W as serious, no discussion about that.

Michael,

WHY do you want to bi-wire?
