Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic

A person can put together a Schroeder Method set of ICs on the cheap, and they should expect lovely results. However, as with all wiring, better cables will provide superior results. All of the testing I have done so far confirms this. So, if cheap splitters/Y cables are used along with inexpensive/low grade ICs, while there will be a surprising improvement, this in no way suggests that the limit has been reached. I suspect there are some stunning results to be found with superior connectors and cables, or alternatively with manufactured superior cables in Schroeder Method. 

There is a LOT of room to roam upward in performance, even after the initial jolt that comes from hearing Schroeder Method the first time.  :)

Doug.....I bought the 1 meter pair from Audio Sensibility....it seems they make a cable that doesn't need the Y connectors but still maintains the Schroeder method.  He told me that this cable is better than the double with Y connectors since it eliminates the adapters.  When I get the 1 pair back to try out, I'll report back.  Thanks

stringreen, Steve mentioned your order in an email today. You will be one of the first to get an Audio Sensibility cable with Schroeder Method construction. I will look forward to your impressions. 

Mind if I ask what components in your system you will be trying it on? No class D amplification, right? 

You’re right Doug....no class D......All Ayre - CD/Universal silver disc player, amp, preamp, VPI turntable/3D arm 2nd pivot/Winfield cartridge, Vandersteen 5A speakers. Everything including phono is balanced cable, speakers are bi-wired. Top Wireworld cables at present (who knows what the future brings) Looking forward to hearing what all this jibberjabber is all about :)

Steve @ Audio Sensibility has made very fine cables for quite a long time now( I use his power cords in my system and have been very happy with their performance ) and his stab at building using the Schroeder Method will most likely be stellar as well. Looking forward to hearing your impressions.
