Quick speaker wiring question

[FSUNole17 10+ year member]

I have some Kenwood eXcelon dualmag speakers from about 5-6 years ago, I lost the manual and need to know which wires are + and which ones are -. One wire is solid black and the other wire is black with a gray stripe, thanks!

Stripe is negative, unless somebody has the wiring mixed up. Don't be afraid to try them both ways though, you wont damage anything, you'll just change the phase which in some situations sounds better.

Gotcha! I guess I just need to make sure that on both left and right, they are both in phase with each other?

usually solid black is negative and black with any color stripe is positive,
