Installing the RD-0194-1 in my SDA 2A's - the new tweeter has one terminal colored red - which wire from the old tweeter goes to the red terminal? The white or black wire?

    Been there, done that, thanks to doro I got them switched prior to getting all four screws tightened up! They do sound better with the black wire on the red terminal.
