Hi, I'm looking to up grade my speaker wire and interconnects and have gotten myself a little confused (doesn't take much
).
My set up is far from cutting edge stuff, even when new and I just worked out I bought my speakers and amp 13 years ago. However after having had a play in Richer sounds demo room last weekend I got back in and found it's still doesn't sound terrible
Set up as follows-
Cambridge Audio A1 amplifier
Cambridge Audio D100 CD player
Apple IPod dock (for 160gb classic)
Mordaunt-Short ms20i pearl series speakers
The speakers are currently connected with unbranded figure 8 cable (although quite ‘chunky' stuff) and that is looking a little worse for where after being moved several times.
The speakers are bi-wireable (currently have a little bridging plate in them) but the amp is only two channels.
Am I still better off going for a bi-wired cable and just separating the speaker ends? (something like van damme bi-wire 4mm cable?) Or am I better leaving the bridging plate in place and using a decent quality speaker cable (recommendations appreciated). Its not like I'm going to need a huge amount, probably 3 or 4m total.
