Synergistic Research Tesla series IC users, please help with direction > of cable

I just wanted to be sure all the SR cables I’m using are in the proper direction. Currently I have all the IC’s with the "arrows" pointing towards the sources, dac/transport, phono stage? Basically all the little blue lights are on the rca’s at the back of the preamp? The arrows are also pointing towards the main amp and sub woofer amps, again with blue lights at the back of the preamp? If anyone can please verify this is correct or wrong I would greatly appreciate your help. Thanks

Thanks, I really appreciate all the quick responses. I switched them around so arrows are pointing towards preamp coming from the source components & phono stage and left the connections to the amp the same. I also called SR and am waiting for a call back from someone there who is familiar with the older Tesla series cables.
Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi bdp24,
I’m not completely certain I heard a difference with the cable direction change? I did here a big difference when I forgot to turn the 2 master controllers back on after switching the cables around. Turning the active shielding back on seemed to open/expand the soundstage up and sounded much better to my ears?
