The only reason I've avoided owning a red car is all those black-and-white cars. Once borrowed a friend's red Alfa Spyder, and within 15 minutes got pulled over. Red car effect - lesson learned. (Of course my driving had nothing to do with it. Ahem.)

I may have mention before that my then boss - in the late 80s - signing off my new bright red fastback company car said "Planning on getting pulled over a lot, are we?"

This was my only red vehicle:

That is what we called the Porsche for ladies

Or '74 guards red 911 Targa, good representation of the one I had for 35 years!

Or my 930 in Guards Red

red is for firetrucks

And Jeep Wranglers

944 was the 988 for people with lower income.

This was my only red vehicle:

A classic. Looks like it had the Fuchs design wheels too!

I'm not sure I can remember being pulled at all in that car! It was a Rover, the empitomy of a fine upstanding citizen!

Wait a minute. This is my tiny European oldtimer car that tries very much to look like his big American brothers and it is.....red.

Someone who used to live in my neighbourhood had a red Corvette - I thought it looked quite good. Then a few years later he had a black Corvette.
I thought it looked much worse.

(Then he moved so I don't know what he's driving now )

I could see that if he didn't keep it clean. I think black cars look really good, until they get dirty. Mine is dirty, I hope Laura will wash it off some (and nothing more).

Ergo, by dint of deductive logic, it is a firetruck. QED.

This day next week I will take delivery of a new car in metallic orange. Is that good or bad? In the UK red cars have historically faded badly, especially when made by Vauxhall.

Maybe / probably it happens / can only be done in the analogue domain on the DAC?

Designers choice. At some point the digital gets converted to analogue so it can go out the RCA jacks. The phase can be done in the digital or the analogue domain.

You can not correct any phase errors in the mixing. If the mastering is in opposite phase you can assume it was done deliberately. No professional sound engineer makes that mistake.
You can only reverse to compensate for design errors in speakers and gear, cabling, bad positioning, room acoustics.
If a soundtrack sounds "better" with reversed phase in your room and with your equipment it only means your room acoustics, comb filter or standing waves are less annoying / less counter productive when you reverse the phase.
That is all, nothing more, nothing less. In another room with other equipment the result can be randomly different.

That does not reflect my experience.

My choice for a red car. Too bad there are only 3 of them left.
