If the Brysons are are stereo amps ( I believe they are) you can do a
vertical bi-amp, best of all worlds.

Again a nice experiment - thanks for posting it! I tried this myself a
while back, and like you heard no difference.
Those look like pretty sensible cables, so I'm not at all surprised by
your results. I think differences in cables and in cable
configurations will only show up when the cables
Ben, any chance you can give this a go with some different music? I'd
recommend trying it with something that is studio-recorded (not live)
and perhaps with more rhythm/drive. Hotel California is a great test
track for some things, but not for others...

Sure Phil. It's an easy test to conduct. I think I'll also make up an
obviously weak set of jumpers so that I can hear what effect that might
have and then be better equipped to hear the difference.
What would suggest to use as a test? Something simple? Maybe just a
female vocalist or

Relative to Hotel California, I'd go the other way...something with
more drive/rhythm which requires more bass speed. I think Hotel
California does

You are correct. there is no electrical difference and certainly no
audible difference to be found via bi-wiring speakers. Because the
source is still identical, you are sending exactly the same signal to
both sets of binding posts.
The double set of posts are actually there to satisfy those

the jumpers. For test one, I jumpered the negative side only.

I'm in complete agreement that biwiring provides no improvement that
thicker cables can't provide (which is to say, effectively no
improvement unless we're talking extremely long distances or high
amperages).
Well, I agree that bi-wiring provides no improvement, but

How long are your speaker cables? Presumably, the effects of bi-wiring
(if any audible effects exist) would be more evident the longer the
speaker cables.
One side is 10 feet and the other is 25 feet.

Opaqueice, did you read any further than the 1st page? He seems to get

Here's some interesting technical info on bi amping with some comments

In another thread, we discussed the merits of biwiring and I offered to
do some experiments to determine the audibility of various
configurations.
I currently have DIY cables made with Carol 12/4 cable. These are
terminated on the amp side with locking banana plugs soldered to the
cable. On

That's why they call it buy-wiring.
