Subwoofer Speaker Wire

[decipha]

anyone know which wire is the positive and which is the ground?

I heard mention of red wire being the ground but I only have a black wire and black/white striped wire.

I cant remember as its been a while since Ive had the little sub out.

{edit}
It appears the black/white striped wired is negative.

This is to the actual unit as a whole, not sure on the sub itself.

Use an multimeter or cheap impedance tester to check. You may need a stub piece of wire to attach to one position and other hand near your sub to check which line is which.

^^^ An OHM's test will not tell you +/-

OHM's reads resistance across the +/-

Actually, I just flip a coin, wire it up and turn on the power. No smoke or burning smell means I guessed right.

there wont be any smoke the driver will just be inverted

since im 8 hrs from the house and dont have a dmm i tested either way and it sounds as though striped goes to negative

enjoy
