Johnny: For some reason I can't get a e-mail to you........It seems that if you don't spend at least 4 days trying to get a 5.00 piece of plastic that your just wasting time...........How do they sell any speakers ??? Thanks Will

Johnny at Audio connection, Are you going to have some of these ?? If so I won't use the ones I have which have to be redrilled and the speaker cloth has to be removed to do that.......It seems like so much work to fix something that a 1.00 part would fix.....What is wrong with a company that would go to so much trouble to make a good customer into a bad customer, it doesn't make any sense to me........Will |
Sorry, I forgot you mentioned the Madisound pegs already. The pegs in the link below should work, I measured mine with my digital caliper and found the shank from the flange to the ball tip to be 16 mm long and the ball 5.70 mm in diameter as opposed to 6 mm in the pegs I linked to but I suspect they have compressed the .3 mm over the years. There are detailed dimensions in the item description. http://m.ebay.ca/itm/NEW-20-Pairs-Ball-and-Socket-Type-Grill-Guides-Pegs-Plastic-Screws-Speaker-Part... |
Not sure what ProAcs you own but these pegs look almost identical to the pegs on my Response 2.5’s. I measured the ball diameter on my pair and its 0.225 in. The ball diameter of the peg I linked to below is .just 005 in. larger. They Might work, I’m unsure of the other measurements but at 41 cents each I’d buy a couple just to try. https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/grill-fasteners/peglock-grill-fastener-peg-and-socket/ |
Mike if I thought that would work I would give it a try.....Its absolutely crazy you can't get a few little clips to hold the grill on one of suppose able great speakers........Same thing with my Wilson Cubs, 5000.00 speakers and no way to keep the grills from falling off .......A guy might as well put a big gob of silicon in the corners and call it good........One of the Proac guys thought that Velcro was the answer.......?!?! |
I already have a bunch of the wrong size from Madisound.....The folks in Dallas want pictures of the ones I don't have....You would think that as easy as they break that the folks in Dallas would know what I'm talking about....Of the five pairs of Proac's I have they are all the same......One of the guys wanted me to use the "Velcro".....I already have some Wilson's with the "Velcro" and they won't stay on either.....All I need is the simple plastic Proac device and I'd be home free.........Thanks |
