I just returned my single wire Z2 and upgraded to the Biwire version. I was so impressed with the single run, that I had to have these. I would say that there is a slight improvement over the standard Z2 with just a bit better clarity but it is not a really dramatic improvement. For only $50 more than the standard however (plus an extra set of spades), I would buy these over the single run. I was not a believer in expensive (to me) speaker cable and I was just using a biwire run of 12 gauge copper zip cord but the difference was HUGE!!! I don't think that you'll really need anything better, and it looks like it'll last a lifetime. If you are still using zip cord as I was, then you must get rid of it and bite the bullet and buy this stuff-remember, you can change the connections on it to fit any future amp/speaker combo that you might purchase in the future. Expensive, but worth every penny-I plan to keep it forever!!

Good bang for the buck

None so far

Good Value.. I had classic monster thick wire with spades and plugs with the stock jumpers for my B&W 640I's.
Yes these bi-wires helped, others might have been better, but for the money it was worth it. Bass got more defined and the mids show more now. Also the highs are pushed back on the sound stage. This was a tough call to make.. I had sales dudes telling me that you did not need to bi-wire, just need good jumpers, but if you look in the demo rooms, all speakers are bi-wired. My thoughts are if you have good speakers, a good system, then you should have good cable.. Oval9s looked good but more money.. I would rather save money for other gear at this point.
