jason str Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Working on a drop ceiling subwoofer design and cannot find any more of these perforated grilles. Anybody see anything like this lately ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish the picture was more clear. Not going to look like too clean of an install but may work if i cannot find exactly what i need. Thank you for the link.

jason str Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 From the mfr site Thank you, cant find exactly what i need unless i order in bulk from China. Looks like i will have to settle for one of these options or just buy some perforated sheet stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Just build a frame and cover it with acoustic cloth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason str Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) That was my first choice and may still be an option. Figured the metal grille would be easier to clean and maintain. Less of a chance of snagging on the sharp drop ceiling parts as well. Edited February 17, 2016 by jason str Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J M O N Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 How about getting some flat metal grill-like material from Home Depot? You can get something like expanded metal and make it look fairly nice. If it is going to be covering you subs in the ceiling, don't forget to secure it well and use stiff material so the frames don't vibrate and make a racket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that is the perforated sheet stock i mentioned. May not look quite as visually appealing maybe but it can be better secured with screws and O rings or grommets to keep rattles at bay.
