Question on speaker wire polarity?

[Roman G 10+ year member]

I have these 3 wires below that I am using, and need to know which one is + and which one is -.

My biggest problem is the tweeter came prewired from kicker, and there nothing in the manual about it. Pretty worthless manual IMO!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/verymad.gif.3f39c5c2fd57527b671fad3efdfac756.gif

The one on the left is what is attached to the kicker tweeters. The middle is silver and gold, and the one on the right, one side has a blue strip down the whole wire

Any help would be great!

Thanks

Usually a stripe indicates +, the others I would guess that the copper wire is also +, but thats just a guess.

Anyone else have any insight.

Black usually indicates negative, so that's my guess for the tweeter.

The others could be whatever you want them to be as long as you remember which one is which. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
