I just installed Some Rockford Fosgate Punch 6.5's and 5X7's in my 95 ford flair side, and i think it could sound a little better than it does now. For my deck i got a Alpine 7892.Im not too sure if i got the positive and the negative right on the speakers, because of the orgional wiring i used. can you help me figure out the + and the - of the wires. thanks

Yes. Changing the polarity will affect the sound. With internal speakers, the main thing you'll notice is a loss of bass if the polarity is wrong. And the overall sound will not be as "crisp"
