I always use T-nuts. Next time though I'm using hurricane nuts. :shrug:

You may be offended by the above. Don't take it personally, I'm just abrasive.

It's always a good idea to nut up. Every time you have to remove your subs you're loosening up the holes if you're using sheetrock or deck screws. You can remount a sub or change out subs hundreds of times if you use t-nuts.

Another time to nut is just after you pull out. :good:

Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud.

I like to make sure my girl nuts before me. She's much better with tools, and she won't mess up my subwoofers when using t-nuts. She's good at nutting, I'm good at screwing. I like to use 1 5/8" drywall screws, the work nicely.
