Hi all greetings from sunny Singapore,

I'm new to this site after having bought a pair of RTA 11T speakers. Got these in replacement of my Wharfedales bookshelf. I'm sorry if this has been asked so many times before. My Wharfedales were bi-wired since they have 2 sets of posts, the RTAs however have only 1 set. Is it possible to biwire the RTAs? What do you owners of this speaker do, just run straight without biwiring them?

Thanks in advance.

BTW, have any of you heard of Anti-Cables and have used them, would appreciate your comments on them especially if you use them with the RTAs :) http://www.anticables.com/technical.html

Welcome to the forum, Dan.

The RTA-11T can't be biwire or biamp unless you want to modify the crossover which
is not neccessry to be better than the stock form :-) I run a pair of Belden 10ga speaker
wire to my RTA-11TL and the RTA-15 (the bigger brother). That's more than adequate to
me.

Hi Dan and welcome to the forum!

I own a pair of 11t's and I'm in the process of rebuilding the crossovers and replacing the tweeters. I'm not going to modify the crossover, I'm just rebuilding it with newer and better parts than stock. Use the search feature to find out more about the RTA11t.

I'm using the same speaker cable as fredv and its available here LINK (http://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/speaker/index.htm) Its good stuff and it is inexpensive for what you get IMO. I've heard of the Anti-cables (almost bought them myself) but I've never actually heard them.

Thanks for the replies and welcome. I'll look into the Beldens. Really enjoying the RTAs they are incredible :)
