Replacement Sonus Faber grille strings?


Hi guys, the grille and stand strings on my Sonus Faber Guaneri Evolution speakers are beginning to sag.  While I know its a straight forward task to retension the grille strings, I am just thinking that at some point I will need to replace the strings. The stand strings look a bit more difficult as it will require me to dismantle the stand.  

Of course I have no intention of paying the ridiculous prices SF wants to charge me.  So does anyone know of a source for the string?

Boy, do I have great news for Sonus Faber fans:

The Elipsa grille kit is $80.00 plus shipping costs. The part number is SON9940033. If you would like to order the grille kit please fill out the online Parts Request form: https://airtable.com/shrCYsyBO4Rt0ovXI. If you have any questions, please let me know.

A fair and reasonable sum.  Received this from Sumiko USA today.  

I dunno if the dealer was just ripping his customer, or Sumiko was charging a far different amount in days past.  

I'd always hoped that U$1000 price was urban myth.   In any event, those who have saggy grilles but like the look, these kits are available for quite a reasonable amount.
