What is a test tone?
A test tone is theoretically a constant pure wave of the desired waveform. In practice, many test tones are not perfectly shaped, and the quality of the test tone produced is generally directly proportional to the quality of the device (usually some type of oscillator) being used to produce it.
How can you tell if speaker polarity is correct?
Speaker polarity is determined when connecting the wires between the amplifier and the speaker. When the positive amplifier terminal is connected to the positive speaker terminal and the negative amplifier terminal is connected to the negative speaker terminal, the speaker will be in correct polarity.
