Default Please, Please help with a basic quick question.

I'm building Zaph's B3S build and the driver has red and white terminals. I don't know which one is positive and which one is negative, and when I tried hooking up the driver directly to pos/neg to figure it out, I can't hear a difference.

breifly connect a 1.5 volt battery to the terminals. If the cone moves outwards, the + end of the battery is connected to the + terminal of the driver

Wow, what a cool trick, that worked and it was the red (as I assumed). I was just worried because I couldn't tell the difference when I tried listening.
