Mains Out


Hi guys, I got an used Rowland Coherence One and I noticed that it has both Normal and Invert Mains Out for each channel. What's the use for them? I'm not skilled and couldn't discern it from the user's manual.
May I connect my two Threshold amps (one in the Normal, the other one in the Invert)? As I don't want to blow it (love it) I'm currently running it with my Krell FPB 600 only connected to the mains output labeled as Normal
Any guidance is highly appreciated!!
Best,
Hernan

Trouble is there are NO standards on recorded music. Even within an album you will find absolute phase differences between tracks.

You may want to test your ability to hear this before calling it an issue.....

Connecting a pair of amps....one driven 'normal' and the other thru 'invert' should NOT be a problem if doing a biamp with stereo amps.. Just swap one pair of speaker leads. For monoblocs? Same deal.

The other solution would perhaps be to make some custom, phase inverting interconnects. I don't know if that's such a good idea, however. Or even if you won't screw something up......ground typically likes to go to hot thru a load.....
