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....

I got hooked from reading this thread. Grannyring supplied me a beautiful pair of RCAs which I received yesterday. I'll be back in a few days.


Doug,

Just auditioned this method on my multi channel analog side with great success. More clarity and dynamics all around. 
XMC-1
Pioneer Elite DV-79AVi DVD Player, Modwright Oppo 95 SS mods.
Veracity ST fronts
Songtowers ST with the RAAL tweeter for surrounds
Song center with RAAL tweeter
2 - Rythmik F15 subs
Acoustic BBQ RCAs DSM
Duelund 16g speaker wire
3- Equi-Core 300s and 1- Core Power 1200

Doug,

Thanks for the compliments. This method is also used on my 2 channel tube system that consists of a pair of Omega HO Alnico towers, feed from a Modwright Sony 5400ES, a Don Sachs 65 watt Kootney amp paired with his SP14 linestage with all the bells and whistles to date.  

And of course 4  - EC 300s in place. 

The DSM added a little more clarity. The cabling had a greater impact with the solid state. Not sure why, but that's my assessment.
I think I have another positive review here.


Before the DSM ICs I tried a double run of Duelund 16g wire for my speaker cables with ugly results. This was about a year ago.  The single runs were for two different systems. Now I've purchased 3 sets of DSM ICs and they been in the system 4 months going strong and I like them. So I thought I'd take the 2 sets of speaker cables and make a double run to experiment with the DSM ICs in place. For me it elevated my listening experience another notch. Could it be the combination of DSM ICs with the double run of speaker wire?
