eth2 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Does anyone know where I could get grills which would cover the full dace of the LaScalas? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) you would have to make them yourself. you can find factory grills for the mid and high section on ebay from time to time Edited June 10, 2014 by Budman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I posted some pics of LS with full grills in the Best Looking La Scala thread. Wonder if Volti would make on for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eth2 Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 Sancho, I saw your picture and that is why I asked about grills. I finished with the LaScalas. They look OK, but they would never win an award. I stained the sides and tops with dark Walnut and left the fronts Birch. They have four coats of poly. As I intend to use them in the garage or outdoors they will be fine. Bob should get my crossovers and tweeters tomorrow, so hopefully they will be up and running by the 21st.

Sancho Panza Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Do yours look like they were built for a top grill? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) LaScalas came with flush fronts. if you wanted top grills you had to add a moulding Edited June 10, 2014 by Budman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 top grill was a factory option, for like $20, or thereabout... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) TG on the back label from the factory stood for Top Grill. if you ordered them that way from klipsch they added the moulding and the grill. my first set of 79's i added the moulding and bought some factory cane grills for them Edited June 10, 2014 by Budman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason str Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Just build yourself a frame & wrap it in a fabric of choice. Use magnets or velcro to attach your newly made grill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) MIne ***appear*** to have Factory Top Grills, but no TG markings, maybe what appears to me as 70 is TG with bad penmanship? $20 Dealer Cost, MSRP $36 for Top Grill: https://2d73e25b29782b6d6766-9c8af5cbfef16739445bc76457060528.ssl.cf2.rackcdn.com/DealerPriceLists_635363489403566000.pdf Edited June 10, 2014 by Sancho Panza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will watch eBay and other sources. maybe some will turn up. if I understand you correctly lascalas didn't come with any holes to accept grills. the front of the cab was equal to the sides or as I said earlier flush fronts. you have to add moulding around the cab and then use Velcro.

I agree, Velcro would work. But first I need to find grills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 if you want grills to cover the whole front of the speaker which is 2' wide by 3' high you will have to make them if you want grills to cover just the top section ebay does have some from time to time for sale.

Sancho Panza Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 If you want top grilles I can measure mine for you. The owner of the Full Length ones is over at AudioKarma; perhaps he would measure his for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
