Show I Disconnect the Lows on My Bi-Wired Speakers?

(1/1)

bhadella:
I have my B&W DM601 S3's bi-wired coming out of my amp.... I have a 12 inch sub that holds down the lows fairly well, would I increase the performance of the 601's by disconnecting the speaker wire running to the lows allowing the speaker to focus on the mids and highs?  I love the 601s but they are adding very little to the lows...  Is it possible that I might have a "hole" in the sound if I disconnect the wire?  Would I miss some of the "high register" low end sound that the sub might not be able to reproduce?

Thanks

Hadella

scervin:
Bad idea, but why did you bi wire in the first place??  It has been proven in many test that bi-wiring does nothing to the sound. Now to bi-amp.....that is totally different.

The standard answer of two speaker wires should produce a better source than one.  Thanks for the advice.
