doesnt quite work that way champ. there is only a plug on the speaker itself. no + or - marks, just one way that they can be plugged in.

there is no way of knowing which wire is positive.

any one?

no offence intended, but you'd have to be pretty stoopid to assume that a factory wire is negative just because it has a black trace... :omg:

considering that black is the colour of the earth wire in majority of automotive applications, and were making assumptions, you would be stupid to assume otherwise....

everyone knows what an assumption is .........................mother of all lesbians

dead set though there is no marks on the speaker and no NEVER assume the black trace reffers to negitive the expense of these icc's is definately worth the ask wouldnt want to possiably f*ck something up due to the great old assumption

just if I cast my mind back ...........................did all the negitives have a trace on them being black?

it was a wile ago and I rembr changing my speakers and thinking wow whats these colours?

I dont know who assumed that the black trace is negative. I said the black trace was negative, but never assumed it. I only said it because I know it is fact.

black is not always earth either. toyota use a black wire for the positive wire for the rear right speaker in 99% of their cars.
