The wider terminal on the back is always the positive; the narrow is always negative. Reversing the two won't make the speaker sound any different by itself, but if you have two speakers that are wired differently from each other, it will affect the sound quality.

If one tab is, in fact, larger this is positive. Usually, if they are the same size, the positive is on the right (speaker faced down).
If it sounds 'flat' like you mentioned, maybe they are backwards at the radio/amp.
Good Luck!

TRY SWITCHING THEM AROUND BUT DONT TURN IT UP TOO LOUD . IF IT STILL SOUNDS SHI!! YOU MIGTH NEED A BEETER BOX, AMP, OR EQ. BUT I DO RECOMEND FREE AIR SPEAKERS WHEN IT COMES TO PIONEER.
