Cable connection

Posted by Joe [IP: 202.61.249.163] on October 29, 1998 at 18:13:55:

Hi,
Would someone help me on the following:

1. The speakers I used have two sets of binding posts for biwiring, but my amplifier doesn't. Can I twist the four speaker wires into two groups and plug them into my amplifier to achieve bi-wiring?

2. What is the benefit of using bannana plugs as compared to connecting speaking wires directly into the binding posts? I heard people said this could minimise oxidation. But I wonder whether oxidation would occur at the wire/bannana plug connection instead?

3. What is the difference between normal interconnected cables and digital coaxial cables?

4. When connecting the LFE output of a DD amplifier to an active subwoofer through the line level input/output, would both normal interconnected cables and digital coaxial cables do the job? Is there any cable specially designed for this purpose?

Thanks

Joe
