Categories: Grille cloth / foam and fixings

Top quality grille cloth from Jantzen Audio. This flame retardant polyester cloth is made in Germany and has just the right amount of stretch when fitting over frames, making it easy to achieve a flat professional finish with no loose or baggy areas.
Sold by the metre on length, reel width is 1.5 metres.
Colour: Black RAL 901.
Small colour samples also available.
This grille cloth is great - it's super-easy to work with and it's got just the right amount of stretchiness to ensure a really professional-looking result. I used Gorilla contact adhesive, but did not put the glue on both surfaces as per the instructions - that seemed like it would be too difficult because of the stretching required. It wasn't necessary - I glued around the frames, waited for about 3-4minutes, and then just pressed the fabric onto the glue, pulling to the corners first and then around the edges. Worked well. It's solid, and my 35yr-old speakers look like they're brand new again!
Thanks for the excellent write up Alastair & yes, this cloth has just the right amount of stretch to remain taut without pulling out of the glue. We've actually had a client trim the interior of a VW camper with this cloth & the results were brilliant.

On reflection having now fitted the foam, I wish it was 15mm to 18mm or even 20mm thick. This is not a complaint. For a small speaker under 30cm high it’s perfect. For a larger speaker I feel a thicker sponge would hold its structure more pleasingly, its aesthetics, but important for the finished look.
I’ve been building my own home cinema as a complete DIY project and reached the stage where I needed some decent acoustic foam for my speaker panels (also DIY!) so I picked up 3 large sheets from here. They were sent quickly, packed well and moreover, are of excellent quality. With them being folded into the shipping box they were slightly creased but after leaving them out overnight on a flat surface, the creases fell out completely. They’re now in place and doing their job brilliantly. Cheers Willys Hifi!
The crossover was constructed well, I just need to figure out the best way to attach it to my Kef Concertos as they are bigger than the ones supplied by Kef that are mounted on the front of the baffle board.
Very nice deep bass look amazing with my custom made speaker
Great speedy delivery and very easy to fit. The plastic in my drivers had perished and they had suffered one too many parties! No need to make any adjustments (someone above did suggest that). I just screwed them in and the foam compressed into place. Before and after below (before I changed speaker number 2). Thank you!
