Accessories for bi-wiring
Bi-wiring is a separation of the music
signal current into two cables; one for the higher and one for the lower
frequency range, e.g. one for bass and one for the midrange/tweeter.
Bi-wiring makes an audible enhancement. The best combination is a pair
of Ply 3.4 or Ply 3.4/S.
In order to make it work the loudspeakers should
preferably be equipped with separate inputs to the crossover networks.
If not, then you could move out the crossover network from the loudspeaker
boxes and put it close to the amplifier. It should then be easy to make
a bi-wired connection from the crossover to the loudspeaker components.
Nylon braid ’hose’ is available for sleeving
over the cables to gather them into a single bi-wire cable pair.
How to:
The braid sleeve widens when it is pushed together longitudinally, which
makes it very easy to push the cable pair into it. The braid sleeve is
supposed to be somewhat shorter than the cable pair to leave a margin
to be stretched afterwards in order to tighten against the cable pair.
A heat shrink at each end fixes the stretched braid sleeve and completes
the work.
Please be aware: A very tense stretching makes a neat result, but also
a less flexible cable.
The termination trousers in the picture are for twin interconnects. They are applied with Supra Twin and Supra CarLink.
