Correct Way to Invert Phase

Hi,

My Conrad Johnson preamp is phase inverting.

The CJ manual says to change the phase "...by reversing the positive and negative connections to your speakers (be sure to reverse both channels)..."

Can anyone explain why changing the positive and negative connections between the amp and preamp would not accomplish the same thing?

Just wondering if this could harm the components or is some other science at work here that I do not understand?

Thanks for listening,

Dsper

I have a phase inverting Cary 98P. I correct this at the speaker terminals.
I also have a Feliks Euphoria head phone amp the is fed from the amplifiers second set of amplifier outputs to the Feliks amps inputs, how can I phase invert this?

Could I swap the + & - soldered connections on one end of the each L &R RCA cable or swap and resolver the output wires inside the amp leading to the rca connections? (This looks like it is easy) ?
