If you think it ("absolute phase") matters, get a balanced interconnect made with Hot #2 on one end and Hot #3 on the other end. It would be easy to modify your existing interconnect.
polarity questions
so the xlr inputs on my amp follows #2- and #3+ while my cd player's outputs are #2+ and #3-. neither has a "polarity inverting" feature that I am aware of. here's where the questions begin:
1. the easy way to solve this issue is to swap + and - speaker cable connections at the speaker binding posts while leave as is on the amp end. but that will invert my other source(s). is this correct?
2. my other source is a turntable, so by changing the cartridge clips I can "invert" teh polarity of the cartridge so both my sources are inverted when they go through the amp and are then reverted at the speakers, is this reasoning correct?
3. is there any reason to be concerned that the delicate phono signal is going to the phono stage inverted?
many thanks for any help. I am electrically/physicsally/technologicaly challenged.
