OK to remove Tweeter Grill??


I know I read something..perhaps in the Mapleshade catalog about removing the hard plastic grills in front of the tweeters.
These would be easy to remove with a pair of wire dikes but impossible to replace back to factory condition. Any tests on such a move?

OK the speakers are not in warranty and I do not plan on removing the plastic grill attached. Of course I do always remove the cloth grill when playing music. End of story.
Hmmmm, the plot thickens. I was considering this option for 2 reasons. First the hi's are too bright for me and second I do remember the suggestion from Mapleshade. The kicker is I am still trying to tweak the room and they may solve the brightness problem.

Those Mapleshade guys do know how to make a great recording but, I don't know about their expertise here. I guess the only way to know is to try it and then get out the super glue if they need to be replaced. I have a Dremel that would do the deed and a chainsaw for backup if necessary. Anyone else tried this TGR process? (tweeter grill removal)
Sonic: The tweeters are now between the 2 mid range speakers with factory dampening material around them. They should not be raised anymore since they are already above my ear level
when seated. There is a seperate rear firing tweeter that I should try to turn down I guess...forgot about it. hmmmm?
