Did I make a mistake with my Nautilus 805?

Sorry I Offended all you Sears Employees?

Maybe I should have just said - "As no the screws should not be loose, just snug, not over tightened either". - and left it at that?

The guy is in a jam, just trying to help him out in an affordable fashion.
Then to have to pay 2 way shipping to & back to B&W.

KIMUN ITO to Err is human.

IMO what you did shouldn't affect the sound performance by too much, if by any percentage at all! As the N805 don't use a Fst driver, it is only holding the driver to the cabinet. Just make sure you didn't severly over-tighten them?

Not as bad as having Sears Auto Service overtigthening your transmission pan gasket!

Nah NAH nah NAH Nah I said Sears again! Stop kicking sand, let's play nicely, can't we all just get along???

God, don't Shun me, I'm not even Amish!

Have you offered him any advice instead of just bashing me?

Hum, Let's see & the answer is "NO"!

It's not like I told him to go buy 6 gallons of paint at Sears, paint your listening room with it. Then fill the cans with water & return them.

They are just tools.

Lighten Up!

P.S. JAX2 - just for the record I never sold yo an amp, we only share naked listening positions :0)~

AudioBugged... Wow??? Need I say more?

Dear Kimu, my guess the mounts were a bit loose. I would simple contact B&W or ask your local dealer. Most of us are very willing to help even if you purchased elsewhere.

Anyone who is an owner/manager of a retail store of any sort will understand my remarks. That sort of activity costs everyone(mostly the consumer) a lot of money not to mention being completely dishonest and lacking any sort of moral value. At least I can see that most here agree that those are NOT solutions to this problem- so I would retract my statement about being ashamed to be part of this group *most of you are great people* and I am honored to be part of this comunity. Of all people I should know by now that a few bad apples are in every batch, its just every now and again I am shocked with the remarks.

I am sure it is hard for some people to understand that SOME folks do care about what they do for a living and how they conduct themselves in business and in life. Lying, cheating and stealing(yes this would be stealing) is no way to live life and manage to get any form of enjoyment out of it- but hey you saved some money.

Back on Track...($.01 If you can't afford the torque wrench, then you should finance your Bose System from Best Buy, because you are adding cost to my Sears tools that I do buy)

As long as you don't strip out the MDF by tighening the drivers, you are ok, and yes those screws should be loose. Using a Torque wrench with the manuafacture specs prevents the stripping out of any screws.
