Usually if speakers has mid and tweeter out of absolute polarity to woofer, it sounds better when the higher frequencies are in + polarity, meaning + on positive terminal (red) makes cone go out. The woofer will then go inwards. There could be a polarity reversal in your other components, meaning loudspeaker should be connected reversed.
