LOL !!!!!!!!!!

You haven't worked much with a variety of speakers, have you?

1. Who says I do not have torque wrenches and screwdrivers?

2. Older cheaper speakers, say early Boston Acoustics , used a a lot of particle board for construction. Ever examined particle board? Lots of big shards of wood in a compressed substrate. : depending what the screw hits torque will change considerably.

3. Consider the fact that most wood products are hydroscopic: recessed mounting holes can vary quite a bit, particularly if particle board is used. Even ambient humidity can cause warping of a baffle. If the mounting surfaces warp, all bets are off for even torque.

4. Also name me at least ONE manufacturer which will specify torque specifications for mounting their drivers.
