Inverted Phase Preamplifiers with REL Subwoofers

I understand with use of an inverted phase preamplifier, it is necessary to transpose your speaker wire connections from positive to negative and negative to positive to correct phase.  As REL subwoofers are connected downstream with a Neutrik (high Level) connection at the speaker terminal do you have to reverse the wiring?  With normal phase Yellow and Red wires are connected to the positive terminals and the black wire is grounded on one of the the negative terminals. (3 wires total) The REL also has a phase switch (0 to 180) but is this the solution?

REL claims that the correct switch position will yield a louder result whether it be a 0 or 180 when in correct phase with the rest of the set up.  Did you find that the sub was louder when you flipped the switch? Did you have the REL before you got the C-J?
