Cary Audio Design SLP-308 - Manual (Page 8)

SPECIAL NOTE:
Your new SLP-308 preamplifier is a polarity inverting design. This means that a positive
direction musical signal coming into the SLP-308 will be polarity inverted as it is
amplified and be sent to the power amplifier as a negative direction signal. The SLP-308
has one gain stage and one buffer stage in each channel. Absolute polarity inversion is
common on many high-end preamplifiers. If you are concerned about ‘Absolute Phase’
in your system, reverse the positive and negative leads either on the back of BOTH
loudspeakers or at BOTH the speaker output terminals of your power amplifier.
Remember to do this for both channels. However, please remember to switch the
phasing only at the amplifier or only at the loudspeaker, not at both places. Operating in
the polarity inverted phase mode will not harm anything.
