preamp inverts polarity


I have a DeHavilland Ultraverve 3 preamp that inverts polarity.
my problem is my speaker cables, the negative cable is designed for negative terminal connection as is the positive cable is designed for positive terminal connection, so reversing the speaker cables defeats the design of the speaker cables.

what am I to do ?

I’ve read this whole thread and will never get that time back. 

Invert connections on both speakers then listen. If it sounds better then before, leave it. If your cables are built differently for negative and positive, try it anyway. 

If your preamp has a polarity switch, use that instead. 

Some recordings were recorded or mastered with inverted polarity, so the “right” polarity may vary.
