And better forget about making comparisons from now on with the Z1ES against the XA5400ES if you are not going to make an effort to ensure both their outputs' absolute polarity are the same.

Okay, so just reverse the wires on your speaker input. Problem solved.
-----------------------------------------------------
Big speakers and little amps blew my mind!
for the Z1, I've switched the red/black on both speakers,
doesn't that invert polarity?
Or is there more to it?
Jinx one two three.
From what I understand you can't hear reversed absolute polarity.

I switched the speaker leads, and damn if "Travelogue", with Ralph Towner, doesn't
sound amazingly 3 dimensional and fantastic, not even one of my fav recordings for
sound quality before, pretty laid back, even foggy previously.
I still use Remastering Engine, Precision Upsampling and DSEE for PCM Files ( this one is 24/88 ).
I can't really spend anymore time with it today, but tomorrow will test it as rigorously as I can.
A bit of fun.
Will report.
Duly Noted.
FWIW, when I use my preamp that reverses polarity, I reverse the input leads to my speakers. I did not know the Z1 reverses absolute polarity.
Let us know about your observations when you get a chance.
I should not be doing this at work, cause I just got busted by the boss.

Jerome has some off the beaten track ideas, but this is worth a try,
maybe it won't pan out, maybe it will,
but it's easy to try or put back.
First Impressions aren't always right,
I haven't changed it back yet,
but will listen more tomorrow.
I didn't know about the reversal on the Z1 either,
I don't know how Jerome finds this stuff out!
Agreed.

Geoff
