9V will be OK though 1.5V is better. Connect it only very briefly (less than a second).

The wire may have a moulded ridge along one edge which is usually positive. As others have said though the actual polarity doesn't matter but both speakers must be connected the same way around. So if there is a ridge on the cable use it for positive on both speakers and you'll be fine.
