Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic

I think this topic deserves its own thread , where use double ic through y adapters , from source to preamp, Can’t connect it from Preamp to Amp...For me the result is huge, I can’t go back to single ic....

Thanks for your recommendation.

I had not tried Marigo apparition Digital Cable.

But Zenwave D4 is clearly one notch above Blackcat Silverstar mk2 and sounds good enough at my system.

I will finish cable rolling at this point.

I had not changed any major audio components from 2013 to July 2018.

For the last 6 months, I had spent more than 15k$ on Line Magnetic 508 SET amp, Jay’s CDT2 transport. used Lyngdorf 2170, lot of cables and tubes.

It is time to retire from hardware swap and enjoy the music.

It will be hard to beat my current system in musicality.

I tried the Schroeder Method once with XLR cables acting as AES/EBU between a Musical Fidelity transport and a DAC. It was very good. It certainly did not seem to exhibit any issues due to doubling the IC. The sound quality was holistically superior to a single IC of same brand, even though the Y cables (not Audio Sensibility) were poorer quality.
