Thanks Mark,
I was wondering if I could unplug the positive or negitive from the amp and put a volt meter to each wire at the other end. The one that registers juice would be the one plugged in. Would that work too?

Actually if you unplug from the amp you would be getting no voltage/reading
Yes, you could check for the voltage at the speaker end with the wires off the speaker and a volt meter, this would give you the correct polarity, if a negative voltage shows up on the meter you know you are connecting the meter backwards.
