What size Allen Wrench/Hex Wrench, should I get for my subs?

[45auto 10+ year member]

I have two Audiobahn AW1571SE's and the voice coil terminals require a hex tool, and I don't have one that fits. Is there like an industry standard for subs or something, because I don't feel too confident when I'm tightening the terminals using a regular wrench squeezing the sides and tightening it like that.

Go to Home Depot, Lowe's, Home Hardware, Auto Zone, Pep Boys, whatever is most handy and get a set of them - if you're unsure about which it is get both a set of metrics and a set of standards - cost to acquire both should run you less than $20.

I would suggest that after doing that you'll have the correct size. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Check the box your sub came in? My Audiobahn came with the hex's....

Nope, mine didn't come with any, I thought it was weird, but what's more weird, it came with some black cloth, that I can't find any practical use for.

I bought some audiobahns long time ago they were the natural sound subwoofers and they came with a hex but I soon lost it. I used a small screwdriver and it work fine on those terminals. MInes came in with a white glove.

LOL, at the time, that scared me, $20 was a little steep at the time, considering I'm not getting dididly squat from work with the hours I'm working.

Fortunately, I'm a Wal-Mart shopper, and I found a full set with Standard and Metric sizes with like 40 of them, all for $0.98 cents... That made me feel good.

Thanks.
