[QUOTE="Stephen Way, post: 215169, member: 14678"] Hello, I need some help, please... last year I was up to doing some decorating in my living room, I took my wall mounted Goodman's Magnum Speakers down and thought I would take this opportunity while doing the deco to chisel a grove in the plaster and hide the speaker cables inside the wall so, that is what I did. I finished up all the deco, filled up the grove where the speaker cable had been recessed, and painted the walls The only thing I had not done just yet was refitted the speaker wall brackets and mounted the speakers as I used my headphones for music. So, long story short and six months later just last weekend I refitted the speaker brackets and mounted my speakers and here is where I need some help, I forgot to markup my speaker Cables "- +" and I have been tearing my hair out all week thinking...Apart from ripping all the cable out the walls how would you tell "- +"? I have just guessed what is "- +" to be able to hear any difference, even had some friends around to see if anyone can hear any difference but no one can, I got told, "Just guess, there is no difference anyway" But It's bugging me, there must be a right and wrong way to wire up speakers or why have the "- +"? [B]So,[/B] [B]Apart from ripping all the cable out the walls...How do I know what is "- +"?? ...[/B]Any help would be much appreciated [/QUOTE]
