Bi Wire termination

Went to my local dealer last week regarding some new cables.He suggested that I didn't bi wire this time around, but use a single set of cables, then join the biwired terminals on my speakers with another very small length of speaker cable.


I'm sure that when I bought my speakers (way back), Mission provided copper rods to join the bi wired pairs up.


Is there something on the market that will help with this, or should I just go for the small speaker cable option

Re: Bi Wire termination

yes, speakers are supplied with link bars normally, but tbh your better off replacing them with short lengths of decent speaker cable anyway imo

To add to that it's always normally cheaper to buy an extra length of the same cable and terminate them yourself than buying the jumper cables readily available.
