A/B test of interconnects - Will this work???

I have some spare time on my hands over the next couple of weeks and thought I'd sit down and try to figure out whether I can "really" hear differences between interconnects that I have accumulated. My thought was to put a Y-adapter on my cd player output and run one set of interconnects to the cd input on my integrated amp and another set of interconnects to another input. Then I can sit in one place and use the remote to flip between the two inputs while playing a cd.

I don't think this should blow anything up (let me know if you know otherwise) but will it work for what I intend? Or will the mere existence of another interconnect hanging off the Y taint whatever results I get?

Thanks for any thoughts.
