Where is everyone getting their grill these days?

#1 Post by Trauma11 »

Last I ordered grill's for a BFM cab I used an ebay seller, but it appears he's out of business. Who are people using these days?

Thanks

I have my father order it in for me in 4' x 10' sheets and then he cuts to size for me. (he owns a metal manufacturing shop)

Is there a minimum open area in the grill when the application is for speaker cabs?
Is 1.6mm thick enough for heavy duty, or is 2mm considered heavy duty?
Built:
DR 250: x 2 melded array, 2x CD horn, March 2012 plans.
T39's: 4 x 20" KL3010LF , 2 x 28" 3012LF.
WH8: x 6 with melded array wired series/parallel.
Bunter's Audio and Lighting "like"s would be most appreciated...

yes, about 66% open area or better

both gauges are ok, here 1/8" (more or less 3mm)is considered heavy duty
There is a very thin line between fail and success. It is very thin so, why are you scared???
