Phase Inversion??

Hey you smart folks out there:

I was just wondering about phase inversion in my system. I am running a Shunyata Hydra 4, powering a Modded Rotel 1072, going to a Sonic Frontiers SFL-1, then to a Conrad Johnson Premiere 11A, then finally to Proac 2.5's. With such a "multi-cultural" system, would the phasing be correct if I just keep the connections by the book or is there some inversion in the path? The Sonic was the one I was especially wondering about. Or should I just flip/flop my speaker connections and try it? Thanks in advance, my little brain can't handle this one..

The easiest way to check for phase inversion is to use any of the "Test and Demo" disks out there. If you hear a difference. act upon it. Otherwise you just need to try your system with a certered vocalist and then try it with the phase inverted at the speaker outputs of your amp. Keep the connection that sounds best, but remember that what is best for one source is not always best for another, and for your own sake - trust your own judgement and just enjoy the music!
