I'm looking into cheats way of bi-wiring my monitor audio speakers. at the moment I have one cable that could be split into the four connector for bike wiring .
would I get any better improvement from the speakers if I did ?

I can't see how it would make any difference unless you are only using two of the four wires at present, can you?
I have a pair of Tannoy Monitors and only recently bi-wired them after reading that it does make a difference. I am convinced that it sounds better - more clarity on the high end and better sound stage and imaging. I used my 30 year old monster speaker cable for the woofers and Cat 5 for the tweeters.
With two different cables, perhaps, but the OP is using just a single cable, so unlikely to benefit from "bi-wiring".
Not sure what the issue is? The cable looks fine - just connect it and hear if it makes a difference. Nothing to loose.
Could be a snake oil theory, but I am certain I can hear an improvement. Difficult to do an A/B comparison.

If that's like what you have (2wires at one end 4wires at the other??) it would be best to connect them all otherwise the unconnected ones could act like aerials
Remember when all the popular manufacturers sold bi-wired enabled speakers a few years ago?
Those same manufacturers no longer make bi-wired speakers throughout most of their range as they state it doesn't provide any worthwhile benefits , what does that tell you?
Bi-wiring was just another marketing fad .

No difference when u bi-wire, big difference when u bi amp and the biggest difference when u electronic crosover(remove the passive crossover) + bi amp.
+1 for that ^ active x-overs and bi/tri amping brings HUGE improvements, not quite as cheap as a few runs of wire though 😀
Incremental improvement. Single wiring puts the summation of the complex crossover sections at the load end of the speaker wire. Bi - wiring put the summation at the source where the amplifier can deal with reactive loads better without the loads influencing each other at the speaker. Again, incremental improvement. Bi - amping, especially with active xo is a huge improvement but at a huge cost.
Bi - wiring costs little and provides a little improvement.
You get what you pay for.
