I was blasting the system today, and to my horror I heard a rattle from my left speaker. Traced it to the bottom woofer. Turns out all the drivers were loose! A full half turn on all drivers fixed this issue. I swear I checked them a few months ago!

I encourage all of you to check them right now, I bet they’re loose!

    My tweeter had about 10 turn before they tightened. I actually thought they were stripped.

    I wonder if that's why SVS puts that big steel cage on their subs?
