Who knows how to check speaker wire polarity?
Ladies and gents, I'm in the middle of changing out TVs, both front and rear on our '04 Itasca Horizon 36GD with the C-7 330HP CAT. Now, a small amount of history here. Winne and Itasca, in that era...

If you have wire that is same color, you may still have a marker. Look for a ribbed side vs a smooth side. The rib may be all around or only on one side. If they used this type of wire and connected it correctly the ribbed side will be the negative.
If that still doesn't solve it, go with the reverse the wires option.
A really old way is to find an old VTVM(vacuum tube volt meter). Set it on low AC and watch the needle movement on a low bass note if the meter moves upscale on the note, polarity is correct.(I know probably not practical but it did work)
