One speaker wire is clear and one has a white thread going through it. Does one mean positive and the other negative?

You could technically make either positive or negative. Just dont mix them up. If youre asking a question like this you might want to have your home theater system professionally installed. Personally I use the white line as the power positive red....black is clear ground.Good luck

The single important thing is that you wire both speakers identically. If you use the wire with a white stripe on the red terminal of the speaker and receiver on one side, do the exact same thing on the other side so that you don't have your speakers out of phase. That will cause you to have muddied sound because the speakers will be fighting each other.

IT just made it that way so you can choose your positive and negative sensibly. if you choose the white thread as positive on one end. make sure you do that to the other end too. Hope this makes sense.

It's for you to know how you wire your system. It's doesn't matter which one you use for positive or negative. I use white to signal I hooked it up to positive.

It's a marker so you can tell which wire is which on both ends. You can use it however you want according to your application. I always use the marked wire as positive, but so long as you use the same wire on both ends, or throughout for the same purpose you will be fine.

I agree with T. Thomas, sounds like reversed polarity - it's easy to do as the documentation is not very clear on the wiring.

There is a power cord coming out. They are 2 wires. The only hard part is there is no documentation as to positive vs negative lead. I tested both directions and chose which worked best.

You should just need to change the two wires, it sounds like wired backwards. On my set, the wire colors were different between the right and left housings, the ground wire is the same color on both housings.

Check for a possible short in speaker wires .Maybe a small piece of wire lying across terminals on back of unit. Or possible short in reciever.

Not sure what you are asking. Is thy a statement? What's your question?There are two speakers and if they both do not work it is defective and needs to be returned

I am away from my home for a couple of months but I think I can do this from memory. The white is negative. The red wire is positive and when connected the siren will give a steady tone. The yellow wire is also positive and when connected the siren will give a wailing tone. Connect the red or yellow to positve but not both at the same time. When I had a long run from the security panel the siren was not loud enough. I changed and had the security panel activate a 12 VDC relay connected to a 120 VAC transformer that put 12 VDC out to the siren over a short piece of wire, I was pleased with the loudness of the siren.

These are parallel connectors. Two males connect to the two females, and resulting in one male. Since male from the panel is normally positive, the single output is still positive. They shouldn't have marked the two inputs on the connector.

Middle is positive or "hot" wire. The 2 ends are the negatives and brass is ground.

If there are speakers in the rear then you have speaker wire. I have this converter placed in the driver side front corner behind the plastics. All you need to do is identify factory speaker wire color and splice in. If your wondering, what if I get the positive and negative side mixed up just hook up a small test speak and observe its motion the correct motion is the speaker pushing out not sucking in. Another way is hooking it up behind the factory radio.

I am in a different location from the speakers. If I remember correctly, the two speakers are connected with a wire (provided).

there are two subwoofer connections close to the speaker connection: labeled 1&2

one line means it is positive. it should have come with instructions. if you bought the multi pack, test someone you know is clean and this will show you for sure. ,

I don't have a schematic but the negative terminals measure zero ohms between them. The positive terminals show a high resistance. So I would say it is common negative. The two mounting pads appear to be isolated from the rest of the circuit.

The center wire should be Positive. Sorry that's the best I can tell you, it's been way too long since I installed mine.

The center jack is NEGATIVE while both side jacks (they seem to be connected internally) are POSITIVE.
