Sorry for being so dense but how does one do it ?
My monoblocks each have a single pair of speaker outlets, my speakers two
pairs of connecting posts with a bridging strap in place. Do I simply run
double leads from the amp to each separate speaker post and remove the
bridging strap ?
Thanks

Not dense!..........indeed, simply run tandem cables from the amp to the
loudspeaker (being mindful of polarity). Also correct, remove the jumper
straps. A personal tip...I as a rule always dip the cable ends(pins, lugs,
spades, nannas, whatever) in a bit of rubbing alcohol just prior to
tightening. I find this not only helps clean the connections of any oxide,
but helps prevent it as well!

Regards from the USA

Not much :-)
That's about bi-amping, an established technique.

They're talking about bi-wiring, which is snake-oil.
