When installing speakers and the wiring tangs are _not_ marked for
positive and ground (+/-) does it matter which speaker tang is chosen
for ground (-)? - Mike

Yes. Hook a small battery 1.5v with a couple of wires attached
momentarily to the speaker terminals and see if the cone moves forward
or back. If it moves forward you have the battery negative and hooked
up correctly, and obviously if it moves backward you have the leads
reversed.
