One last point which I do not believe has been emphasized enough is that the longer the interconnects, the lower the characteristic impedance of the cable. Doubling a cable halves the impedance, and I have been avoiding longer cables (i.e. I have only worked with 1m interconnects to date) in doing the Schroeder Method, as I do not wish to encounter a situation where the output of the preamplifier (whether internal to a DAC or dedicated preamp) is not able to drive the amplifier, and potentially incur damage due to the characteristic impedance being too low.
Those with more esoteric designs in DACS, i.e. NOS DACs, and preamps should exercise caution and understand the limitations of their gear, and accept the potential for damage if they proceed. At this point in time caution is still to be exercised as regards types of systems in which this can be done safely.
