Replacing driver screws with brass screws


There was some discussion about this on Millercarbon's thread about the Moab speakers, and I wanted to pursue the subject further without interfering with his thread.
As I stated there, I have heard about this practice for quite a few years, but never tried it because it seemed like one of those lunatic fringe ideas; and even though I actually really enjoy trying tweaks, and have found many of them effective, I just was not prepared for what this one did for the music coming out of my speakers. 
Specifically, it improved the detail in ambient trails, focus in general, complex harmonics in voices and stringed instruments, and instrumental separation. It is not subtle, and it is immediately noticeable.
So, I am curious to know how many of you out there have tried this, and what your experience has been.
Thanks, John

I brought this up earlier. If I purchased a brand new pair of speakers,and I start replacing screws and other parts,doesn’t this void the manufacturers warranty?

Well only if you were foolish enough to tell the manufacturer what you had done and leave the altered parts in if you had to send back....

Same issue I used to face with chipping motors, remove aftermarket chip before it goes to dealer for service or any work!
Agreed. And how often do we send speakers in for warranty repair rather than a part of a speaker?
