    Grills on N801's

    I know that most don't use grills on their 800, 801, 802's. I put mine on because I honestly don't trust our cleaning people around my equipment. My speakers are black on black N801's, which was the color that I least wanted. Now, I have to admit, after putting the black grills on, they look really cool. Kind of like something out of Star Wars (the original ones!!). The body doesn't look "fat"

    I really like this.

    I have my grilles on also, i go through phases.
    The grills just make em look mid-evil at times, pretty badass if you ask me

    Once in a while i get the urge to take em off, but the grills seem to always end up back on.

      I agree.

      I don't know if you saw it but I posted this elsewhere. Check out a Musical Fidelity pre. I bought the A308CR. Its as solid as the Brystons and I swear it sounds as sweet as my preamp without all of the PITA of tubes. Plus it delivers some force to the Brystons and wakes them up in the bass department. Great purchase. It also has a TT input so I am looking at VPI turntables. When the time comes, you cen pick them up on Audiogon in the low teens.

        Seems to be some negative reaction to the gloss black on here and seen the CMs in gloss black at Best Buy/Magnolia yesterday and I have to say they are very sharp and sleek looking in person! I also liked how the magnets automatically centered the grill. I was wondering how you attached the magnetic...

        First of all, let me say that I think that I hate this hobby!, or whatever is. :P It's more like an addiction! After getting my Stentorians done, I had to build something else, and now the hunt is on. And, more importantly, I HAVE to have a reason to go out there and just listen to them. 8)

        Grills on or off?
        by Jesse111
        I did some extensive A/B stuff the other day. Grills on Grills off. Well, I'm not sure if I could truly tell a difference. But, a few times I "thought" I did. So, what does that mean? Well, it means that since I think I might be able to tell the difference, I don't think I can leave the grills...

        B&W grills-off, possible harm?
        by Eliav
        Hi
        I love the look and sound of the HTM3s and 803s with grills off. I however always put it back when i finish listening to music so to keep it "clean" and "protected".My HT room is OW kids free/wife free/smoke free/ direct sunlihght free......
        Is there any potential...
