Nordost Reference Bi-Wire Jumpers

Uncompromised Terminal Linkage for Bi-Wire Loudspeakers | Available at Trimira Audio

The Nordost Reference Bi-Wire Jumpers are designed to replace the basic metal plates or short jumper wires commonly supplied with bi-wireable loudspeakers.

Constructed using Nordost's advanced cable technologies, the Reference Bi-Wire Jumpers provide a purpose-built connection between the loudspeaker's high-frequency and low-frequency binding posts when the system uses a single speaker-cable run.

The jumpers combine Dual Mono-Filament construction, silver-plated solid-core OFC conductors, FEP insulation, controlled geometry, and low-mass precision terminations.

At Trimira Audio, we recommend the Nordost Reference Bi-Wire Jumpers for high-performance loudspeakers where the supplied factory links are a potential upgrade point.

Key Features & Technological Innovations

Patented Dual Mono-Filament Technology

Each conductor is wrapped with two helical FEP strands before being enclosed within an extruded FEP jacket.

This creates a low-contact dielectric environment designed to minimize dielectric interaction and energy storage.

Silver-Plated Solid-Core OFC Conductors

The jumpers use 99.999999% high-purity solid-core OFC copper with pure silver plating.

Solid-core construction provides consistent conductor geometry and avoids the strand interaction associated with conventional stranded jumper wire.

High-Purity Extruded FEP Insulation

Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) insulation provides a low-loss dielectric environment with strong mechanical and thermal stability.

Mechanically Tuned Spacing & Length

The jumper construction is controlled for consistent geometry and precisely specified length, helping manage electrical and mechanical characteristics over the short connection between binding posts.

Low-Mass Precision Terminations

Reference Bi-Wire Jumpers can be configured with:

• Gold-plated low-mass spades
• Gold-plated Z-plug banana connectors
• Spade-to-banana
• Banana-to-spade
• Spade-to-spade
• Banana-to-banana

This allows the jumper configuration to be matched to the exact binding-post arrangement of the loudspeaker.

Why Upgrade Your Speaker Jumpers?

When a bi-wireable loudspeaker is driven from a single speaker-cable run, the factory links connect the amplifier cable to both the high- and low-frequency sections of the speaker's crossover network.

Replacing basic stamped links with purpose-built speaker jumpers allows the connection to be matched more closely to the main speaker cable in terms of construction and termination.

For the best system result, Trimira Audio can also help determine whether bi-wiring or upgrading the jumper links makes more sense for your particular loudspeaker and amplifier configuration.

Consult with the Audio Specialists at Trimira Audio

The Nordost Reference Bi-Wire Jumpers provide a straightforward upgrade path for bi-wireable loudspeakers using a single speaker-cable run.

Trimira Audio can assist with:

• Spade versus banana selection
• Mixed connector configurations
• Binding-post compatibility
• Jumper orientation
• Single-wire versus bi-wire configuration
• Matching jumpers to your existing speaker cables
• System auditions

With Dual Mono-Filament construction, silver-plated solid-core OFC, FEP insulation, mechanically controlled geometry, and precision low-mass termination, the Reference Bi-Wire Jumpers provide a premium alternative to standard factory-installed speaker links.
