The lower terminal of the upper right speaker (as you look at the pic) is positive. I believe the top speaker terminals on the speakers on the left are positive (marked with red dot). The speakers are each 16 ohm. I believe the top two are wired together in series, the bottom two are wired together in series, and the upper pair is wired to the lower pair in parallel.
If anyone could take a look at this and share an opinion I'd appreciate it!
I'm thinking it's 16 ohms total impedance, but I'd like another opinion before I use the 16 ohm output from the tsl 100.
Thanks!

Welcome, Kong.
It's tough to see in the pic exactly how the bottom pair is wired, but the way you describe everything is correct: top pair in series + to -, bottom pair in series + to -, with the two pairs wired together in parallel + to +, and - to -. Wired this way, if all the speakers are the same impedance individually, the total impedance of the 4 will be the same as the impedance of one, so use the 16 ohm output on the TSL.
Interesting mix of speakers. I recognize the V30, but what are the others?
Can you take a better pic detailing the wiring on the bottom pair? ...and exactly which terminals are used to connect the top and bottom pairs in parallel?
