What size screws?

I've got the empty MWM cabinets.

 

I have the screws to screw the outside panels on.

 

I have the drivers for most of the cabinets.

 

What I don't have, are the screws to hold in the drivers themselves.

 

Anyone want to share the size I need for the drivers?

 

I live about 18 miles out of town.  Speakers are an additional 12 miles away from my house.  I don't want to play trial & error if I can avoid it.

You are talking about the machine screws that fit into t-nuts?

 

I believe they could be (but wouldn't guarantee...) 10-32. (also used on a lot of equipment racks).

 

Dennis also mentioned that size once. That's what I am using on my LS rebuilds (one is a clone, that only had wood screws).

I thought he meant screws, not bolts.

 

I also remember in a previous thread someone from Klipsch, Inc commenting that the company used 10/32 machine screws.  I just installed some 10/32 1.50" long bolts for use with 6-prong T-nuts into MDF for a DIY build.  This was for use in a 15" sub that uses a double baffle 1.5", so these screws are the perfect size to solidly hold the 30 lbs driver.

 

If it helps, the hole I drilled into the MDF was 1/4 inch.

I do have some Klipsch tweeter screws in hand.  They are 1" long hex head. I don't know how to measure the diameter, but I would say probably #8.  It is a course thread for wood with a long, sharp point on the end.
