| OMG, just removed my speaker grills and the sound just opened up to a new level! Great thread! The friendly banter is just what I needed tonight 😁Grills off for me while listening. I must say though, the metal grills that ATC uses are very transparent sounding. Studio Electric M4’s use an interesting ($400 optional) metal g... | |
