Tightening Driver Screws


Every time I gently tighten the screws on my speaker drivers, I am quite surprised how effective it is. After about 1 1/2 years, I found about 15% were fully tight, 65% were slightly loose, and 20% were quite loose. Starting to fear I may have to look for the brass screws that some recommend.

Don't want to argue. Testing for loose screws is worthwhile.
Check mine periodically. Wouldn't want to locktight. Those drivers will keep drivin, and wood/particle board will compress, over time. Don't tighten too hard. Snug, play,resnug after a week or 2. Your efforts will result in longer and longer gaps before tightening is required, and you get the feel of things. Enjoy.
