Thanks for the tip Dan. As an old audio pro, I should have remembered to keep up with that detail. Was out of the game for several years and I'm slipping! Thanks to AA for keeping me on my toes.
My Revel F208's are only 1.5 years old, I'll bet they came from the factory with some loose screws. Most were tight, some not tight enough, none extremely loose.
It will be on my radar to check them on an annual basis. I listen a lot, sometimes it's just background music, sometimes serious listening. I like to keep my ears tuned up since I'm still doing live mixing for my church band.
