Speaker Fabric

[Jeff Stone 444]

My Carver Amazing Platinums sound wonderful but the woofer cover fabric has a few slight stains from years ago. I've looked at a couple different fabrics on parts express and found Mellotone, SoundAssured and the "house" brand. Obviously not all created equal. Looking for recommendations from the community here on what others have used to recover their speakers and are happy with. Thanks in advance, always appreciate the advice here.

When you come to Thunder Ridge Arena later on this month, I have those grills I told you about. No stains, tight fabric, both badges. I should have brought them when we met up in St. Louis.

Sounds great! You mentioned that you live close to Bass Pro. Would that be the one in Springfield or Branson? Sounds like a good place to meet up and give me a reason to shop.

I'm just over a mile from the Mother Store in Springfield, but Branson works for me if that's where you'd prefer. I've not been to that store, and I don't mind shopping at Bass Pro either. I've met Johnny Morris back in the 80's, but I'm sure it was much more memorable for me than it was for him.

My amazings came to me with some party-stains on them - I assume spilled beer?  I don't know for sure.

 

I carefully used a steamer, the kind to remove wrinkles from clothes, and they lifted right out. 

 

I took the grills off, first, so I wouldn't steam the honeycomb woofers.
