Or Lyle could simply include the "phase scrambler" (phase rotation) function in the DSP. IIRC, the Kahn box simply ran the audio through a filter that caused a frequency dependent phase rotation resulting in audio that had symmetric positive and negative peaks and avoided issues with microphone polarity that was voice specific (e.g., one DJ's voice was "positive dominant" while another was "negative."
