Tutorial: T11 - All About: Phase vs. Polarity
Presenter:Alex Case, University of Massachusetts Lowell - Lowell, MA, USA
Abstract:
The word “phase” is misused almost as often as it is properly applied. Meantime, its close cousin “polarity” is consistently neglected. Worst of all, the two terms are frequently, mistakenly, interchanged. Phase and polarity are essential but distinct concepts that, when fully understood, help the engineer get better sounds, quicker.
