REMINDER: tighten up your loose screws

REMINDER, tighten up all loose screws around the drivers. Just Do It. All of them.
Sit back and enjoy your “new system”.

85% of screws on my speakers needed 1/8 to pass 1/4 turn to snug firmly and guess this… all screws on my woofers needed 1 full turn. Some was actually needed 2 turns. Anyways, improvement was a jaw dropping.

Good reminder!

Rather than hand tightening driver screws until they "snug firmly" (without knowing if the screws are equally tightened), match their tightness using a torque screwdriver.

Even better, reach out to your speaker manufacturer to ask them for their recommended torque value.

Here’s a good video from Rick Schultz about tightening driver screws using a torque screwdriver.
