speaker wire: positive/negative?

I need help with my 95 Altima (non bose, non premium). I know this's a Maxima forum but the Altima guys aren't responding and I'd like to finish this tonight.
I'm putting in tweeters to the stock system. For the front driver side, there's a blue/white and a blue/yellow wire going to the stock 5x7. Which wire is positive and which is negative? thanx a bunch!

on the speakers, it should tell u..or the wires...usually they have a "+" sign if the wire is positive.
