Default speaker wiring

I am trying to repair the radio in my 72 stingray. I need some help to determine how the speakers are wired. I have removed the radio from the dash and I have it on the bench. Each speaker plug has three wires gong into it. The speakers each have two terminals on them. How do I connect them? Once I have the speakers connected. I will plug in an antenna and turn on my 12 volt supply and then I can trouble shoot the radio. Anybody have a wiring diagram that you can e mail me?

No, Each speaker connector comming out of the radio has three wires one connector two green and one black and the other, one blue, one green and one yellow, how are these connected to the speakers which only have two connectors on each?
