    When connecting the speaker wires to female blades and then clipping them onto the back of the speaker, one is larger thant the other. Is the large one positive?? Does anyone have an answer for me? Thanks

    Welcome!!! I don't really understand your question... female blades? what are you trying to connect? subs?

    usually, speakers will be marked. if you are talking about component or coax speakers then yes, the larger one is the positive while the smaller one is the negative. What kind of speakers are you trying to hook up?

    yes, the larger is the positive. use 2 female spades and for the smaller one just put it on and smash the top and bottom together to tighten it, not the length way but the skinny part of the spade, dam i just confused myself! lol
