    Angry Different cables to bi-wire B&W 601 s3 and Marantz sr6300 (van den hul)

    I recently bought B&W DM 601 S3 speakers along with Marantz SR6300
    receiver and got 2x3 meters of Van den hul SKYLINE Hybrid cable
    (http://www.vandenhul.com/cable/skyln-h.htm), but now I would like to
    bi-wire them and I was told that I need to buy a set of bi-wiring
    cables or buy an extra pair of cables of same length.
    As I understand advantage of bi-wiring is only seen when using cables
    that are better in bass for bass/mid connector, and using cable thaat
    excells in high frequencies for the tweeter connector of bi-wire
    inputs.
    In order not to lose money on cables here is the question:

    CAN I USE Van den Hul SKYLINE HYBRID FOR THE TWEETER AND Van den Hul
    CS-122 (http://www.vandenhul.com/cable/cs-122-h.htm) FOR THE
    BASS/MID??

    WILL THIS BE BI-WIRING OR JUST SPENDING MONEY AND HEARING NO EFFECT??

    Different cables have different properties like
    resistance,impedance,material theyr made of, These two cables are not
    of same material and have different properties that I do not
    understand (see links). Is that a problem 4 bi-wiring?
    ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS.?

    You will hear no difference with bi-wiring. You'll also hear no difference in the wire you have and the .20 cents/foot wire at Home Depot.

    Well, that is a misunderstanding, sorry. This is audio frequencies we are talking about.

    Sure you can.

    Yes, it is just spending morte money. You may perceive something but it is far from reality as no one has demonstrated audible differences due to by-wiring, no one.

    Different cables have different properties like
    resistance,impedance,material theyr made of,



    Yes, usually that is the case. So what?


    ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS.?

    If you really want to by wire, get Home Depot 12 ga speaker wire, or their low voltage landscape wire.
