ENGLISH CONNECTIONS 7 Connection Example 2: Upgraded version of connection example 1 using bi-wiring connections Use bi-wiring connections to connect the unit and speaker system with 2 sets of speaker cables. Before connecting the speaker system using bi-wiring, check to make sure that the speaker system supports bi-wiring. ¶ Bi-Wiring Connection Bi-wiring connection is a technique for improving sound quality by separately connecting the low and mid/high jacks of the speaker to the amplifier using separate cables. By using separate cables for low and mid/high sounds, the return current generated in the low speaker causes little interference with the mid/high speaker.
