Using biwired speaker cable is simply a better way to connect your speakers to your amplifier and is a cost effective alternitave to the BEST and most costly option of biamplification. If your speakers are able to suppport a biwired configuration, they will have two negative and two positive binding post instead of just one of each.
One set of positive and negative binding post will be labeled "highs" and the second set will be labeled "lows". You will notice that there is a metal clip connecting the two postive binding post together as well as the negative. This allows the "lows" and the "highs" to be bridged together.
When using non-biwired speaker cable, you will want to leave these metal clips in place. When using biwired speaker cable such as Monsters, you will want to make sure you remove these clips to ensure the full benefit of biwiring is realized.
Benefits of biwiring are not subtle and offer an outstanding increase in a systems performance. The most obvious effects are in the mids and highs. We have also noticed in our own testing that speakers tend to perform more effortlessly and sound fuller at lower volumes when biwired. To keep it simple, you are basically allowing your sound to travel on a four lane super freeway with two exits as opposed to a two lane road with just one exit.
The Monster Cable M1.4s Biwire speaker cable is pre-terminated with the Monster Master Pin Base. The Master Pin Base by itself is designed for use with most vintage style spring-loaded terminals that were common a very long time ago. The bottom of the Master Pin Base is also threaded so that Monster Lock Connectors can easily be screwed on to the Master Pin Base. The benefit of this design is that you can easily change your speaker wires termination configuration to taylor the changing needs of your system without the enormous hassel associated with cutting and soldering wires and connectors. It also helps ensure that your cables remain oxygen free helping to eliminate corrosion problems that will impede your signal.
Monster Lock Connectors are available in Bannana Plugs, Medium Spades, Large Spades, Extra Large Spades and also a Flex Tip connector. Each pack of terminations comes with 2 pairs of connectors. For a typical set of stereo speakers, you will need 3 packs of terminations in order to properly terminate both the speaker side and the amplifier side of your system, more if you are setting up a home theater system.

About M Series® M1.4s Biwire™
:
The M Series® vs.
Performance Leader.
Audiophiles know speaker cables can profoundly impact overall audio system
performance. But some so-called "audiophile" cables boasting superior
manufacturing don't measure up when tested with the most sophisticated computer:
the human brain. M1.4s Biwire combines advanced technologies, proven through
many hours of intense listening, with cost effectiveness to deliver full sonic
impact at an attractive price.
Four-Conductor Design Improves Signal Transfer.
M1.4s Biwire features four identical conductors, ideal for biwiring. The four
conductors result in more detailed musical presentation and improved signal
transmission for loudspeakers using separated high and low frequency inputs.
Patented Magnetic Flux Tube™ and precision Time Correct™ Windings
Preserve Audio Accuracy.
Each M1.4s Biwire conductor utilizes 6 large bass conductors and multiple high
frequency wire networks wound around Monster's patented Magnetic Flux Tube –
specially designed to control distortion-producing magnetic fields for better
clarity and soundstage. Time Correct windings ensure that low, mid and high
frequency signals arrive at the same time for improved imaging and more natural
music reproduction.
MultiTwist® Construction and PEX™ Dielectric Bring Out All the
Details in Recordings.
M1.4s Biwire incorporates Monster's famous MultiTwist construction, an
ultra-light winding of conductors resulting in enhanced sonic performance and
superior noise rejection throughout the audio bandwidth. Combined with our new
PEX dielectric for improved signal transfer, M1.4s Biwire offers lower dynamic
noise and greater musical realism.
Enjoy A Higher Level of Music Reproduction.
M1.4s Biwire offers exceptional performance value – recapturing the full
dynamic range of today's music while maximizing the sonic reproduction
capabilities of your speakers. Its clarity and delicate musical balance make it
the finest cable available in its price range.
