So how do you compensate for inverted absolute polarity?

Posted by jeromelang on March 13, 2012 at 16:02:03:

The SA-14's balanced XLR output terminals were wired pin 3 hot instead of the usual pin 2. Going into the VAC pre-amp's balanced XLR inputs, which are wired pin 2 hot, the audio signal's absolute polarity will be inverted.

So how do you compensate for this?

Correct absolute polarity will give you more visceral dynamics, more vivid soundstaging, better definition of image outline, and more realistic sense of musicality.
