Would a switch box with a bunch of the interconnect cables plugged in to jacks be much easier? Make the switch as minimalist as possible so as theres no "the signal path is degraded beyond the point where the differences can be told apart" garbage.
All things being equal (the signal path going through a switch for each individual IC), one SHOULD be able to "tell the difference" between cables right? This alleviates any need to unplug and replug in cables, and you can do an EFFECTIVE back to back comparison and switch it within the same song and get a realistic back to back on the same recording and cut testing time dramatically as well as see if people can really tell what is what. Heck, even put the same cables in different jacks and see if the person BSs you by saying "cable 1 sounds different from cable 3".
