But, the wires don't have to cross in back. What you do to avoid this, simply reverse L/R on all your inputs. Naim would have thought of this, except being British and all..... as Churchill would say, keep buggering on! Cheerio!
(I learned this trick from Definitive, where the Mark Levinson amps they sold, between the thickness of the posts and the thickness of the cables and the oppositeness of the sides were just about impossible to wire correctly. So they wired em opposite. Don't suppose Levinson was a Brit do you?)
