Thee is a standard wiring connection for stylus cartridges. Looking at the rear of the cartridge, there are four connections. With the stylus point down, starting at the top left and moving clockwise:-
White wire - Left channel out (10 o'clock)
Red wire - Right channel out (2 o'clock)
Green wire - Right channel ground (4 o'clock)
Blue wire- Left channel ground (8 o'clock)
Alternately the connection arrangement could be in a vertical line with alternate pins staggered. In this arrangement looking from top to bottom it will be :-
White wire - Left channel out ( Top left)
Red wire - Right channel out (Second right)
Blue wire- Left channel ground (Third left)
Green wire - Right channel ground (Fourth right)
Horn is red +, black -, mid is white +, blue-, lows are yellow+, blue-. If you look at the crossover board, you'll see the treminals are labeled what goes to where.
In Peavey cabinets, the woofer is always Yellow + and Blue - and the horn is always Red + and Black -. On the mid the remaining two wires would be the lighter color + and the darker color -
In Peavey cabinets, the lower woofer is always Yellow + and Blue - and the horn is always Red + and Black -. On the middle 15" the remaining two wires would be White + and Blue -
Blue should go to red. I assume they used an Asian standard. Rough way to remember- sky blue, return brown/ground is green yellow- same potential as brown. yellow somewhere in between.
However reversed leads are not going to be noticed on the speakers of a single amp/speaker. Or if a multi speaker setup in a cabinet as long as all are mated with the same polarity.
It just translates to the direction a speaker cone is moving in relation to the magnet when the polarity of the sine wave peak is positive.
In a stereophonic setup- many can hear the difference an out of phase speaker can make, in a monophonic setup- no one is going to hear the difference. And on a stage setup, unless the speakers are all attached to the same source, they are all moving independently.
black and red will goto 1 speaker. and blue/yellow to the other. typically red and yellow are + and black and blue are -. the crossover board might tell you which is which where they solder to it. but i'm pretty sure the black/red goto woofer. try hooking up both to woofer and listen to it. 1 way is going to sound horribly wrong lol. that will mean you hooked up the tweeter leads to the woofer. but DO NOT HOOK UP WOOFER LEADS TO TWEETER. thats why i say to do it on woofer.
NEVER trust colors... with an ohmmeter you can tell which is the common lead by testing... find the lead that has continuity to EITHER switch independently... It is PROBABLY the blue one... this will be the "sleeve" of the plug. The schematic documentation is so bad the jack wiring cannot be decipered as to which contact is the tip and the ring. HOWEVER once you find the common of the switches and connect it to the sleeve you have only two choices for the other wires so just try them.
You can also take the back off the pedal to find which color goes to BOTH the switches... connect that one to the sleeve. Try the other two wires for proper operation before final soldering.
Way to find out: The minus speaker leads go to ground at the amp and therefore are electricaally connected together... just use an ohmmeter to find which two wires are tied together and connect those to the minus leads of the speakers.
