stupid SR cable ?, can I string ICs together??

can I daisy chain my balanced synergistic ICs? will it mess with the active shielding or cause the shielding to make issues in the system?

I only ask because I just received my new SR cables and now my CD player has to go in for an issue with no idea on how long it will take to fix. I hate to have no music, but the only other player I have uses rca only. I really hate to take my acoustic reference out of the system and not having it burning in either though.

I wondered if I could daisy chain my acoustic with the accelerator between the pre and the amp and then use the RCA to the CDP.

If that won't work then what about RCA to XLR adapters? do those work in a pinch??

I know... it's a stupid question and all, go easy on me lol.

I tried XLR to RCA adapters. I talked with Ayre first and they were iffy on the use... but said try it if I wanted. So I did... and the sound was so horribly bad and confused it sounded like gibberish almost. I quickly unhooked everything.

So I called SR and talked with Ted for a bit. He said daisy chaining would work (although he had other ideas about what I should do) so I have them chained together, with both active shields on.

Doesn't sound great... but that's mostly because I now have a 10+ year old technics 5 disc changer with monster cable RCAs in place of my CX7e-mp.
