Better Audio by Running all Aleph Power Amp Devices in Inverted Mode (only helpful for Unbalanced Pre-Amp Outputs) ?
I have heard from some owner's, that the inverted mode brings a better sonic quality than non inverted mode (as long as no preamp with balanced output available).
In cases, where is a balanced XLR input socket was provided like on devices from early Aleph series, this is an easy task to investigate by soldering a corresponding terminated XLR plug instead of the existing cinch plug on the coax lead - go to the schema of first PDF file.
If only unbalanced input on power amp is present like model Aleph 30 - to find in the schematic of second PDF file, a bit more effort is necessary for changing from non inverted to inverted mode.
What listening experiences in inverted mode were made here ?

tested,works**,done, ages ago
applicable for all amps with true balanced input
**at least for some ears
