There is no official "standard" for audio systems. As long as you stay consistent throughout the system, it will work properly. It is a little known fact that most electrons are color-blind :-) Note that neither wire on a speaker output may actually be grounded, but it is understood that when we refer to ground, common, or negative - all refer to the same terminal on an amplifier's outpput. There are a few combinations that are seen a lot. While these have no basis in any published standard that I know of, you could use one of the following: * 'zip' cord with gold and silver colored conductors - silver is common. * Solid color zip cord with a colored stripe on one side - stripe is common. * Solid color zip with a raised rib you can feel on one side - rib is common. * Jacketed cable, any color plus black - black is common. * Jacketed cable, red plus any color, red is positive - other color is common. * Jacketed cable, neither red nor black - lighter color is positive, darker color is common. Zip cord is also known as lamp cord. Oh, if you are wiring a multi-output auto stereo with dozens of oddly colored wires in a factory harness, all bets are off. Consult the manufacturer's install sheet for the correct info, as colors vary among manufacturers.
