Well, here's some theory... http://www.audioholics.com/education/cables/bi-wiring-from-amplifier-to-loudspeaker I agree that I mis-stated the claim. It should have been more like "theoretically, bi-wiring might make a difference in the sound." Here's the conclusion of the article: "Thus we can conclude that there may be a small effect due to bi-wiring... but it may normally be so small as to have little significance. In order to say more, a detailed model of specific realistic systems, and/or some precise measurements, would be required. These might reveal a more noticeable effect in some cases, but the above taken by itself implies the effects will usually be very small if low series impedance cables are used. It is also perhaps worth bearing in mind that - even in a case where any change in frequency response is large enough to be audible - this does not establish that the bi-wired arrangement will inevitably then be “better” than using a single cable. That would depend upon the circumstances of use, and the preferences of the listener."
