Daisy chaining XLR cables

Good balanced XLR cables???? Not a problem.

Agree w/Crna39-I believe the overwhelming majority would not be able to hear an extra set of connectors, although there are a very select few who have the ability to hear any change to the signal path.

In pro audio, adding another cable simply changes the length. I've never been able to tell any difference unless the cable was bad or there was a loose connection.

As for dissimilar cables-that would be an interesting experiment. Maybe try one brand on one side & see if you can hear a difference?

I agree with Crna39 and Driver. I too have worked with xlr cables in conjunction with pro audio equipment.

I suspect that in at least some of those cases differences would be heard even if, unbeknownst to the person, nothing was changed.

No harm. Connecting them in series like that is not ideally, but I would def give it a shot. You mix milk and chocolate and you will get a chocolate milk; a brand new diff taste just like you just bought yourself a new pair IC.

As long as the source supports the balanced line standard you will have no worries. If it does not, then you will hear the connectors.

I have greatly improved the sound of my system by running XLR interconnects in series with Bybee and other elements spliced in using burn-in adapters.
