CD Player with Polarity Invert?

It seems like there are not many. I've heard the VK-D5 player and it sounded really good but it's a bit pricy and my preamp does not have balanced inputs.

It's sort of an annoying problem as I'm trying to invert polarity of the phono stage and the CD player relative to one another. Another way I might be able to do it is by adding in a tube line buffer (that inverts) between the CD player and the preamp.

On the other hand, does anyone know if tube CD players invert polarity, and if so, which ones do?

Add a Rotel RCD-990 to your list of players that have an invert phase feature.

Why not just swap connections at the phono cartridge? Interchange red with green, and interchange white with blue, and voila!

Al, thank you so much. I don't know why I didn't think of that... The genius is in the simplicity!
