Duelund DCA 12ga Hookup Wire
grannyringI have made XLR cables w/o shield and with a counter spiraled ground (larger gauge than conductors) for Pin 1.  Have you tried this method vis-a-vis the shielded option you mentioned above? 
Reasonable RCA Connectors?
None of the conductors on KLEI RCAs are solid silver.https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/kle-innovations-silver-harmonyrca-s-not-silver-eh

" ...Mind if I ask what components in your system you will be trying it on? No class D amplification, right? "Doug - The above is is an excerpt from your 10/24 post to stringreen.I have a Class D amp.  What are the issues when using a "double?"

grannyringGood for you.  Whenever you get around to it, it would be nice to know your observations.

grannyring  Have you tried a set of doubles with the Duelund 20ag?  If so, are they RCA or XLR?Don't I ask a lot of questions?

A concurring positive opinion regarding the Cerious Graphene Extreme Digital SPDIF; especially used (if you can find one).

celanderTo shield or not to shield - That is the question.  Thank you for pioneering this with the HAVE Star Quad so there is an apples to apples comparison for RCA.As I mentioned, I have some HAVE co-joined, shielded XLR ICs and AES/EBU cable(s) ... 
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic
I have a set of those XLR ICs and an AES/EBU cable on order from HAVE .But I do not have any hideously expensive conventional XLR ICs or AES/EBU cables to compare them to.

Then there is the issue of using splitters vs. an actual co-joined cable (which has been said to be better).  In posts on comparisons, it would be nice to know which configuration is being used.
