bi-wire config question

My speakers are three way, so at the moment I have the MF and HF

Chord Chorus interconnects and Chord Oddessy bi-wire speaker cable.
My gut instinct would be to bridge the HF and MF, with the LF fed
separately. But try both ways and use whichever one you think sounds
better.
That's some pretty nice speaker cable too, I'm using Chord Rumour 4
which does sound excellent. What it might be worth doing, depending on
how over the top you want to go, is to tri-wire the speakers. For this
I'd suggest using the Odyssey 4 for LF and MF and Rumour 2 for HF (HF
needs less current so a thinner cable will suffice).
But the bottom line is to do what you think sounds best. You've got to
live with the system, there's no "right" and "wrong" way with some of
these things, it's just what sounds "right" to you.
HTH.
Are you seriously trying to tell us that tri or bi-wiring makes (or even
can make) a difference? Have you done the sums to see what effect bi or
tri wiring makes?
All you are doing with bi or tri wiring is reducing the resistance from
already low values, increasing the capacitance from normally low values
to still low values, and reducing inductance. Any amplifier/'speaker
combination for which this makes ANY difference is only fit to be used
as a boat anchor.
