KB2 woofer wiring order colors HELP!
Hi everyone, I found this forum and hope to get some help. I'm cleaning a KB2 amp and accidentally got wiring off the speaker/woofer. Anyone here with a Kb2 can tell me the wiring order colors (red,black,yellow). Or drop a picture? Thanks.

For what it's worth, here is a picture of its predecessor KB/A50.
Whatever you do, first connect only the woofer pair and put some music through it at low volume. If it sounds muffled but things like bass drums and bass get through reasonably (shortwave radio quality) and cymbals sound absolutely awful, you got the right pair (in my case, it is the black-yellow one). If it sounds really tinnish like the worst of a smartphone speaker, you likely got the wrong pair.
Only once you have established the right connection pair for the woofer, proceed to the tweeter.
However, there is no guarantee that a particular color scheme is heeded. The speaker has two connector pairs: one for the tweeter and one for woofer. The tweeter is the one where the leads go through to, well, the tweeter in front (in my case, the red/black pair).Whatever you do, first connect only the woofer pair and put some music through it at low volume.

You are gold my friend. Thanks for the information.

Done, it was basically the same scheme. Red-black tweeter and yellow to woofer.
Thanks a lot, really appreciated you took the time to lend me a hand.
