Speaker cable arrows???


I bought a used pair of Silverline Audio's Conductor cables. Plugged them in 
and was very pleased with the neutral sound I was getting. Bare wire to the 
speakers, and bananas on the amp end. Then I realized that the arrows on 
the cables where pointing towards the amp. OOPS, I reversed the path 
direction, and couldn't hear any difference. Zero.
My preference would be to have the bananas on the amp end.

Can I disobey the arrows, and run the cables effectively backwards?

when I got my first stereo I wish the seller had been less concerned with ensuring that the cable was put in the right way (and I was forever after terrified of putting it the wrong way incase I bust my system!) and more concerned with perhaps letting me listen to several pairs of speakers, ie the things that would entirely change the sound I was presented with.
