How do you join speakers together?

Then connect the negative (not red) connection on your first speaker to the positive connection on the next speaker. Repeat this connection until all of your speakers are connected.

What happens if you switch left and right speakers?

It’s perfectly fine to swap the left and right speakers if having them that way works better for you.

Where are the tweeters placed on a stereo system?
