    Need help with B&W 802N

    A friend just dropped by and thought that the gadget behind the midrange driver should be removed. I have attached a picture of the back of my midrange unit. Can anybody tell me if it looks right or should something be removed. TIA.

      The picture looks dark but if you click on it and view the enlarged version, it looks clear enough.

          Don't touch it as this screw holds the FST driver in place and is set at the proper torque from the factory.

          Some people have recommended tightening this screw occassionally but if you go to B&W's web site under FAQ they do not recommend this screw is touched.

              Greg is right, leave that tension screw alone! All of the Marlan headed speakers come from the factory with a locking bolt that does need to be removed when the speakers are installed. Your speaker already has that bolt removed. If you think your FST is loose or sounds distorted then you need to let the dealer handle the issue.
