How grills affect?

This has been an interesting thread, and I seem to have been brainwashed by the Vandersteen position re grillcloths. Of course on the Vand. 2C/3A speakers, the grills can't be removed anyway. But I now have the V5s and tonight I'll take the "hoods" of and see what happens. Cheers. Craig

Don't be scared of the look, Craig it's simply uuugly without!

Where can I get some acoustically transparent cloth to replace grilles on some 20 year old speakers?

Well, this post got me into playing around with the grills on my speakers again. I still like what I hear better with them on. I suppose like everything, it depends on many factors, not just the speakers. I am now playing around with the grills on my speakers in my home office room while I'm here at the computer.
