THANK YOU for this video. I had re-coned (and replaced the spider pad) on a pair of Allison CD6 woofers and (of course) hadn't marked which wire goes where. When I tested the speakers with an amp, they underwhelmed and felt lacking in mids/lows. I wondered if I'd wired and reversed polarity. Anyhow, I looked all over and couldn't see anything from the cone to the terminal that would tell me which wire went where. My only option was to figure out the polarity, but using a 9V battery didn't seem to work. After watching this, I grabbed my multimeter and tested with the "push method", which ended up showing me that at least one speaker was backwards. I just re-tested and these speakers sound phenomenal! Thanks again :)
Not really to the point. Ten minute video? And this isn't even practical in the real world. Real world test would be how to find polarity when you only have access to the wires and the speaker is inaccessible
@@PapaSmurf337 It is to the point and while your at it you can use that same DVM to check polarity of the speaker wires easily in seconds. Some people don't mind taking a little extra time with a video to understand the concept.
Is it just me or does he not explain how to tell which are the positive and negative terminals? It's all just explained in relativity to another speaker!! Didn't help at all!

Nice Trick.. Thanks.👍👍👍👍👍 I suggest you put also subtitle since the recording doesnot cancel some unwanted noise..
On point, well done.

Get to it!
Is it the same for a tweeters
This seems to be a common problem I run across another video saying their ford harness was backwards
Same as pioneer.
Wasting too much time to show what can be shown in 1 minute.

That was painful
Try getting to the point man he said you're going to show us on a multimeter why even talk about the other stupid that idiot Layman do it.
useless
