Don't forget that it was cut direct to disc. The reason for the recommendation may simply be that the recording chain they used resulted in the disc being cut in reverse polarity. Some components reverse polarity and some don't. Put a chain together and what comes out at the end may have reversed polarity. They may have decided to cut that way and tell you to reverse the polarity of your speakers rather than introduce another component to the chain in order to reverse the polarity once again at the cutting head in order to cut in correct polarity, on the basis that another component in the chain would be detrimental to overall quality in some way.David Aiken
