Poll for LSi listeners / owners......

Okay for those of you that own or have listened to the LSi, do you like to listen to them naked or with the grills on?

I notice a bit more detail with the grills off (naked). Just curious as to what others are doing. I see both ways in the system showcase.

Have a great day and thanks for voting!

I'm really into seein the drivers personally. I wouldn't probably have the grills off on the 15's(too much reflective area comin back at ya), but on the 9's, I'd be DEFINITELY about those one's bein naked. I think that the overall design of a speaker, especially one as sexy as the LSi9, should be all about being seen AND heard.....

So reflective, in fact, that you can see your image in them? Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.......

you think if they want you to listen to them naked they would make them more pleasing to the eyes...hum sounds just like me.

I tried naked, my guests were in shock...they all left befor the first song was over.

oops, you guys are taking about the SPEAKERS/GRILLS....I think I know why they left in such a hurry.:eek:

Jee Whiz,

105 looks and only 11 votes. Oh well...

I hear ya Frank... only the women are allowed to go naked!

Well I was really just experimenting with posting a poll to see what it is like. I guess I'm going to have to try something more interesting next time I suppose. I thought the word naked would have their attention at least;)

Thanks to everyone that voted even though this was almost a pointless poll but I learned something in the process!

Generally speaking, I like speakers with the grills in place. My B&W 601's are the exception, I love them sans grills. The LSi, I'm sort of torn, I don't find them dead sexy with the grills off like I do the beemers BUT they have the ugliest grill, IMO. I prefer the plain flat black fabric that the RT/RTi lines of old had. I really dislike the shinier fabric (and colored logo) that they have now. So far, that's my biggest complaint with the LSi's is I don't like the grill cloth.

I keep the grills on......they're in the living room.....look more refined that way

For sound, grills off.

For looks, grills on.

That goes for the LSi15's I own.

Were they in an area that kids did not live - grills off all the way.

While the kids are still young, I dont even want them to know the grills come off. (let alone what is under there)

Nice, didn't even notice till you said something.

I have cats. Grills on! Luckily they haven't snagged them yet but better to keep them away from cones just in case.

I keep the grills on to keep dust off of the drivers. Pull 'em off on occasion on my LSi-9's. Don't notice much difference in the sound, but it's fun to watch when I crank the volumn up. Those drivers sure can dance. It scared me how much they travelled the one time I hooked 'em up to my Silver 9t's. Figured 900 watts each was a little too much power, even though they handled it well.
