 How well would a pair of cascaded 3 terminal regulators do - say a 7815
 feeding a 7812.

78xx Regulators are quite noisy. You can use them to filter the
noise of a cheap DC/DC converter, but i wouldnt use them feed
high precision electronics. There are a lot better designs these days.

What I see done in low-noise circuits is a low-noise opamp used as a linear voltage regulator to clean up the output of a 78xx or the like regulator.
