This should be a pretty simple fix. Lay the speaker on its back. Remove all of the socket head cap screws and the trim ring. Center the driver in the opening ensuring that the holes in the basket line up with the nut the cap screw threads into Replace the trim ring, install the cap screws and tighten. Put the speaker back upright.
Poor quality control crooked driver
https://photos.app.goo.gl/dUEtMe39Sj3dnyh46 I have a mild OCD/quality control issue with my Klipsch R610f. The driver is not dead centered inside its beauty ring. Its sitting to the very left and bottom.
While very marginal and most people won’t notice it. But of course its bothering me....🤦🤦
My question is could this cause issues down the road?, should I just let go, or start a return? (bought them a week ago as a 5.1 bundle) All the other speakers sit perfectly centered around there rings. Thanks in advance

Don't sweat the small stuff. The days of that standard of quality control has been gone for years. The stuff is made in China on an assembly line and sells for less than $300 apiece. As long as it doesn't effect playback then it doesn't really matter IMO. If you want perfection then you have to pay a LOT more for it than what you have paid. Maybe Audio note would work. They hand craft everything. Here Audio Note UK AN-E/SPx AlNiCo Loudspeakers Review - Dagogo |
While the speaker sounds really good, and I know this is their entry level line, just feel they could have done better as this isn't some off-the-shelf Walmart product. I did attempt to unscrew the ring but man they really torque those screws down, and didn't want to scratch anything so I backed off. At this point willing to let it go but wouldn't hurt to reach out to Adorama and go for some kind of partial refund. Going to contact him on Monday. Also the funny backstory of how I noticed it was my damn Border Collie wagged its tail onto the driver the other day which caused me to do a close inspection and while no damage but that's when I noticed it. Anyways thanks everyone for your opinions and as usual seems like we're all alike. |
