In loudspeakers that have the appropriate connections, bi-wiring is the practice of using two sets of wires from a single amplifier to a loudspeaker system, one for the woofer and one for the mid/high frequency section. See: Bi-Amping.
A process where two sets of wires are ran from an amplifier to two sets of binding posts on a speaker.
The process of using two runs of speaker cable from the amplifier to each speaker to separate high and low frequency signals. Each speaker must have two sets of inputs for Bi-wiring to be possible.
A cheaper alternative to Bi-Amping. The speakers must be equipped with two sets of inputs and split crossover design. Two lots of cables are then run from each set of speaker terminals back to a single amplifier. (Remember speakers using this type of crossover design are usually supplied with some type of shorting pin or plate. This must be removed before using your amplifier in this way.)
a method of connecting speakers to amplifiers, whereby two sets of wires (one for highs, one for lows) run from the amp output to individual inputs on the speaker. Not to be confused with bi-amping, bi-wiring requires a speaker with separate inputs for the passive crossover in the low and high sections. (These can also be jumped together for "normal" connections.) The practice is far from universal and somewhat controversial, although fans of bi-wiring contend that a performance enhancement can be had by simply adding another set of speaker wires to a system.
Running separate cables from the amplifier to the Ribbon and midbasses.
Running separate wires to both the woofers and tweeters from the same amplifier or receiver.
Bi-wiring refers to separate wire runs from a common amplifier output to two different inputs on the same speaker. This requires a speaker specifically designed with bi-wiring in mind as the speaker's passive crossover must be designed to allow this. And the speakers must have two sets of external binding posts connected by removable jumpers or "bus bars."
Involves connecting two sets of cables to your speakers, like bi-amping, but both sets of cables connect to the same set of output connectors on your receiver or amplifier. Bi-wiring doesn't deliver more wattage to your speakers, so it doesn't offer as dramatic a sonic improvement as bi-amping. Still, many audiophiles find that it offers subtle improvements in imaging and detail.
Of or referring to a method of connecting the amplifier or receiver to the speaker in which separate wiring is run to the woofer and the tweeter, or in a three-way system, to the midrange driver.
A speaker with bi-wiring capability has two sets of speaker terminal that allow connection of two sets of speaker cable. The separation of high and low frequency signal results in improved sound quality.
A method of connecting an amplifier or receiver to a speaker in which separate wires are run between the amp and the woofer and the amp and the tweeter.
The use of two pairs of speaker wire from the same amplifier to separate bass and treble inputs on the speaker.
