Anyone tighten up drivers occasionally


Out of curiosity I checked the tightness of the mounting bolts on my Revel speakers today. Probably the 2nd time I have done that in a decade. I could turn each bolt maybe 1/16 of a turn (curiously, one woofer bolt took a 1/4 turn). Anyone check their drivers on occasion? systems been off since, and wonder if I will hear anything different-

For Sure. The wing nuts that attach driver to cabinet on my OHM F5s require an an occasional tightening, but less so over time once things settle.
As with most screws, etc., definitely do not over-tighten in some kind of audiophile perfection-driven rage. There is a point of diminishing returns generally well before that. :^)
