AN EASY WAY TO SEE IF YOUR "IN-PHASE" IS TO PLAY A MONO SOURCE OR IF YOUR STEREO HAS A MONO BUTTON USE THAT.
SIT FRONT AND CENTER...IF THE SOUND SEEMS TO BE COMING FROM DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF YOU (CLOSING YOUR EYES MAY HELP)...EVERY THING IS SET UP CORRECTLY.
IF IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S COMING FROM BOTH SPEAKERS (IT ACTUALLY IS...EVEN MONO) THEN JUST SWITCH THE LEFT/RIGHT CONNECTIONS, EITHER ON THE BACK OF YOUR STEREO OR "ONE" OF THE SPEAKERS...RETEST.
GOOD LUCK!

The "in phase" as to "out of phase" modes in audio has to do with the speaker placement and wiring. If the speakers are facing you, you want them wired in phase. This means both voice coils will move in the same direction at the same time. On a home stereo (or in a car even) this is hard to tell on FM, but if you go to AM (or any monophonic source) as you move the balance control from one extreme side to the other, the sound should seem to move across the room. If it is loud on the left and then as you move the control to the right, the sound goes down across the center and rises back up at the other end, then they are out of phase.
