Hi experts,

Does it worth to spend extra money to single-biwire the LSi25s?

Thanks,
AAT

    They aren't really biwire-able in the normal case for biwiring. The bottom posts only feed the powered sub, so there isn't a way to separate the signal between the mids and tweets like you can on the 15s or 9s.

    That means I can only use single-wire speaker cables for the LSi25s.

    You can biwire if you want, but normally, biwiring is done to separate the signal from mids and tweeter from being amped together. This can't happen on the 25s since they are a quasi 3way design.
