Does positive voltage to the black or red terminal give outward cone / diaphragm motion?
In most cases, the black terminal is considered to be the positive terminal. Listed below are drivers with black positive terminals (positive voltage to black terminal gives outward cone/diaphragm motion):
1400PRO 2105H 2118H/J 2123H 2202H 2206H 2220H

As of a few years ago, JBL Professional began manufacturing transducers with the IEC standard of positive to red. Listed below are some drivers with red positive terminals (positive voltage to red terminal gives outward cone/diaphragm motion):
2025H 2035H 2242H M121-8 M151-8 2012H 2020H

When in doubt, consult the specification sheet for the model in question.
