can i use my headphones to judge IC neutrality?

i am comparing a couple cables as they burn in- LAT IC D100 II and signal cable analog 2( i know, big price difference)- so far they give a fairly different presentation
- since i don't have a reference cable to gauge where neutral is, i was wondering if the signal direct to my Grado SR80's from the cdp would be a good basis for comparison- or are there too many other factors involved?

I don't get it. You want to test two interconnects, and you do this by listening to your headphones that is connected to the cd player? Unless the inteconnects connect the grados to the cd player, I don't see how this can be done.

At least, you need a preamp/receiver with headphone out.
