In Reply to: torque tool posted by Flatmap on March 24, 2007 at 09:31:52:
some speakers can respond in incredible ways when the correct torque setting is used. torque setting in inch pounds is very sensitive work and almost impossible to set by hand/touch. with foot pounds certainly there is more touch potential there but torque setting the fasteners will control resonances or tune them and alter the q of the enclosure to a degree. this is touchy work in a sophisticated speaker that is highly tuned.
if you have stipped threads in a wooden enclosure get some appropriately sized dowls from a hardware and tap them in after applying wood glue. drill a pilot after cured and you are all set. try a little hand soap on the screw tip so they do not bind up and the torque can be set easier. good luck with your repair.
