Basically - Why do you do it, and how do you do it? Oh yes, and, do you need to do it? I was talking to a guy at targethifi(www.targethifi.com) and he said something about it being better to not biwire if the gauge of the wire was good enough(yes this is vague, my apologies). Any links to a website with possibly a diagram of how to do it would be appreciated(If you feel that explaining will take too long .

Do a search for biwire or biwiring on the entire axiom forums. I did a huge diatribe on it not too long ago as did some others who chipped in.
Otherwise, this topic has been beaten to death in the past month or two.

bi-amping works
bi-wiring is a little bit of a myth
i think the original idea behind 4 posts was bi-amping were you have amps that only send high or low
then a speaker wire salesman found a way to sell more wire
heck he sells a sucker 1 pair why not 2
i might be wrong but i might be right

Freesey, biwiring is totally unnecessary. The only requirement for wiring a speaker is a single length of two conductor wire of adequate gauge, which depends on the length of the run from amp to speaker and can be anything from about 20 ga to 12 ga. For an analysis of biwiring showing that it's electrically identical to adequate single wiring see pcavtech.com/techtalk/biwire
