Tafka_steve stated this well. Your system may already be inverted and the "inverted cable" may fix this. Also some folks can't hear absolute polarity differences anyway.
XLR inverted, is it OK?
Hi,
I plan to try XLR connection between CD and int. amp.
Unfortunately, just found my CD player with XLR output:
pin 1-> ground,
ping 2-> signal -,
ping 3-> signal +.
and my int. amp has XLR input:
pin 1-> ground,
pin 2->signal +,
pin 3->signal -.
I'm wondering if it's OK to use normal XLR interconnect?
Since I don't think the special ordered inverted XLR cable will have any trial period.
Thanks for help,
