invalidbuffalo Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Simple question: Do you like the looks of your speakers with their cloth coverings on or off? meh, i like them off because (A) they look sexy when you can see the woofers and (B) they sound better.

Fit4130Rider Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 I would like to have them off, but I hate it when they collect dust and it makes it look old. Not to mention I'm lazy. But damn it looks sexy when its off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invalidbuffalo Posted October 30, 2005 Author Share Posted October 30, 2005 yah, i agree-dust can be an issue. Once a week or so i just clean off the dust with a cloth. Also depends on how your speakers really look-a typical one from the '70s or '80s probably doesnt look too great with the grills off, but a speaker like the B&W Nautilus series looks tight without the grill.

Borbus Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 I like the covering on. Can't notice any difference in sound with the cloth on or off. Some speakers do look nice with them off though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangbang023 Veteran Posted October 30, 2005 Veteran Share Posted October 30, 2005 I like the grill on. Not only does it add aesthetic appeal, in my eyes, but it also servers to protect the speaker from any minor bumps and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonComet Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 I like the covering. It just feels more protected to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoogleNinja Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Did anyone else think of BBQ's when opening this thread 586746782[/snapback] Yes... Anyway, I have mine off. I don't really know why... On or off doesn't matter to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12Iceman Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Did anyone else think of BBQ's when opening this thread (like how do you clean your grill or something)? Anyways, i prefer the grill on because it protects the delicate parts of the speaker from being damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ventrox Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 if only they could be removed....... haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esco Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 if i had really sweet home theater speakers, I'd probably have them off. But mine are in-wall...and not UBER sweet..so it doesnt even have a removable grill. I do keep my grills on w/ my klipsch 5.1 ultra's though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
