Actually, in my experience it is even better to bi-amp them. Put a tube amp on the panels and a powerful solid state amp on the woofers and you will have an incredible-sounding speaker.

Otherwise, you can definitely experiment with bi-wiring and see if you notice an improvement.
 
Yes, bi-wire. The great thing about ML's is the better the equipment... the better they sound.
 
the way to bi-amp is hard to made.
in Italy ML's owners say to use same cable for bass and high section.
Is it the same in the rest of the world?:food12:

Hola radioman...well, when I had the Ascent i some time ago, the best sound that I got from them was using copper wire at the lows ant silver wire at the panels...good quality heavy gauge copper wire (uni-crystal like HarmonicTech) and silver like Nordost blue heaven, at that time. On these days, you can get a lot of diversity of very good sounding cables...just trust your ears and choose the ones or the best connecting way that you did like for best!...happy listening,
Roberto.
