didn't there used to be a general speaker section of the forum? oh well... i guess this section will do?
ok, i haven't been in my music room in ages... just getting back into it...
and realised i had tried bi-wiring my Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 speakers with my bi-wire capable Cambridge Audio A5 amp...
listening to this system today and comparing it with the ancient Denon AVR 3802 and Mission M2s speakers (in stereo 2.1 and 5 channel stereo and Dolby 5.1) both systems being fed by my Apple Mac Pro but the Denon via Optical digital connection and the Cambridge via analogue out from mac pro as well as analogue out via Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 audio interface... the Wharfedales sounded clouded and "wooly" in the higher frequencies compared to the Denon....
so I want to slap the Wharfedales onto the Denon AVR 3802 but I've realised I only have 2 of the connector plate thingies that bridge the bi-wired option with the 4 posts on the Wharfedales... i can't find replacement thingies so can I just use a small bit of speaker wire to bridge the bi-wire posts?
what are these things called so that i can try and find replacements?
i searched the inter web for "bi-wire bridge or connector" and found similar type plates but made out of Unobtanium and they look like they won't fit the Wharfedales at all... and short cables that are like 200 quid each... dang...
i need 4 of these bi-wire plate thingies... but could only find 2...
each speaker uses 2 of these... argh...
here is a photo from the inter web i found showing how they look on back of speaker...
