Cheap tweak from Virtual Dynamics:


Has anyone seen the short video from Virtual Dynamics showing the owner replacing all his speaker screws with all brass screws? I was wondering if you could hear an improvement. It's a cheap tweak, so I thought I might go to Home Depot and try out a set. What can I lose?

Tvad,
Sounds like a good idea. I don't have a Wheeler Fat Wrench, but I do have an older Black & Decker battery-powered driver that has similar adjustments. I recall that the video suggested starting at 8 ft.-lbs. torque. I think I'll do the same initially on the stock screws. I just came back from Lowe's and bought 3-packs of solid brass screws of the exact size of my speaker driver's screws. Each pack had six screws at $.98/pk.

I agree that the equal torqueing of the screws probably is as important as the composition of the screw.
