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.

I've needed something like this for years, fantastic product and a lovely company to deal with. Won't be my last purchase from them
It was a nice experience to send the old filters to the UK (from the Netherlands) and get them surprisingly fast back (taking the overseas shipment into account). At first I did it wrong since I also replaced the drivers that could also be connected in a 4/6 Ohm (double coil). But after correcting and calibrating my receiver the speakers sounded great.
Thanks!
Used in a DIY LS3/5a project, with Morel CAT 298 tweeters and custom crossovers using ClarityCap CSAs. Super pleased with these woofers! I think they synergize well with the “live” thin-wall LS3/5a cabinets. The sound is neither bloated, nor thin, just revealing, spacious, and with very lifelike tone. I’m so happy with the results of this project and had a great buying experience with Willy’s. Thank you!!
I used this in custom LS3/5a speaker enclosures along with Monacor SPH-135AD woofers and custom crossovers using ClarityCap CSAs. The tweeters have a very pure sound, revealing microdetails and having a naturally smooth, response. The sound is never peaky or rough. I’m very happy with my purchase and with the service from Willys. Would buy from again for a future project!
I bought a pair of Acoustic Research AR28LS speakers back in 1985 for £129 ! After about 15 years the foam suspension had started to perish and completely failed in 2006 following a rather loud teenage party. I was never happy with the Eminence Beta-8A replacements bought from a local shop at the time, as the bass resonance was far too high. Finally decided to replace them with Monacor SPH-8M and the speakers now sound as good as new. Arrived quickly and no problems fitting. Many thanks.
