Durango: Please help w/ Speaker connection
I re-installed my rear speakers (installed by P/O) last week, but could not find a + sign on either terminal. Is there a way to determine the polarity in some other way? One of the terminals was smaller than the other, but that didn't mean anything to me. They were older Pioneers.

Pioneer = Large terminal is +
Small terminal is -
To test take a 1.5 volt battery and connect + from battery to a term on the speaker. Do the same for negative of battery. If woofer cone pushes outward your good. If woofer cone pushes inward your + & - need to be reversed.

And that's the other way, he beat me to the punch
