Dali speakers

Going by pictures of the back of the amplifier, they indeed have the red/positive connections on the inside and black/negative on the outside. This seems a bit unusual, but doesn't matter much (it's most likely for esthetic reasons, to achieve symmetry).

The main reason would be to help people when using the amplifier in BTL (mono) mode. By putting the 'hots' in the middle, the speaker cable doesn't need to be 'split' apart so far. And it's less likely people would connect the amp incorrectly.

Thank you on the reply.
On the right side, colors on the amplifier binding posts are red, black, and this is matched with the right side speaker binding posts, which are also red, black. So Dali has color scheme red, black on both sides and the amplifier has left side black, red and the right side red, black.

I will also check what @Macfox has mentioned.

respect the COLOURS not the left/right position. If you have red to red and black to black on one speaker, but red to black and black to red on the other, then the speakers will operate in antiphase, and you are are going to destroy the sound.

Thank you all for comments and time to explain.
I will switch the wire to the correct colors on the left speaker binding posts.
