I just picked up a sweet set of Keilidh's. They came passive but in bi-wire mode. What kind of jumpers do I have to install to make them single-wire operable?

You could get by with some speaker wire, buy most here will reccomend something high dollar, so someone will chime in.

Nordost has a nice pair on ebay....$99 but they are in Hong Kong....not too familiar with overseas auctions....kinda skeptical.....

If your not comfortable making your own try something like the zebracables.com jumpers for starters. Then move up the chain if you like.

I would contact your Linn dealer. The last time I checked they had cables recommended for use with their speakers that didn't cost an arm and a leg (even though Linn is high end and therefore very expensive). I bet they could supply you with a set of original jumpers. If possible I would certainly recommend bi-wiring, and even better is to bi-amp them. Congrats on scoring a great pair of speakers!

I do plan to bi-amp and bi-wire in the future....first is to replace all cables with PS Audio....anyway...I have looked for some LINN's for a LONG time...these are right in my back yard pretty much.....LINN's website does not show any jumpers available unless they were made a while back.....
