Have you noticed any phase reversal issues relative to other pres?
Mine is 180 out, check and re-checked all cabling, good. Multed a sine =

That was my first guess, checked the manual, says pin1 ground, pin2 hot, =
pin3 cold.

I never checked mine. Now you have me wondering. I'll try multing an RE-20
to the Sytek and another pre and I'll let you know what happens.
Meanwhile, contact Mike at Sytek:

Hey Rob,
I multed a RE20 to my Demeter VTMP-2a, my RNP, my Presonus M80 and my Mackie
1402 along with the Sytek. The Sytek is out of phase w/ the VTMP-2a but
IN phase with everything else.
Most interesting. Now I have to call Demeter to find out what's up w/ that!

Yea, that is kinda strange. Please let me know what you find out. As for me,
I will be running the Sytek with all channels inverted for the time being, I
tested this and all seems fine in relation to the other pres. It still bugs
me thow and I cant wait to see what the boys at Sytek will have to say about
this. Stay tuned.

Geez, now I have to go run a sine wave through every channel of
all my mic pres just to check & see if i've got this same
situation with any piece of gear.
I think if did, I would've heard it by now on SOMETHING...
.....but, SEE WHAT YOU'VE STARTED???!!!???

Europeen contra American standards? I remember from years back that
the hot was different. Don't know if it's still the same.
