Sweet rigs, a lot of work and pride taken in these set-ups!

Just after Axpona, April 2015. Carl (schwarcw), Doug (dkg999) and Aaron (ALL212) were here. Only thing different today is the Ref 3 pre amp plugged in/heating up at far right is in the rack now along with a Bottlehead Eros phono pre.
Just for reference, an earlier shot that slows lots of cubic feet off to the right which means subs are needed to reinforce the nethers.

My system, modest yet mighty. Yes, the best things can come in small packages.
The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

do most of you keep the grilles off the speakers most of the time?

Ultimately I think it depends on the speaker manufacturer's design. Mine (Salk's) recommends critical listening be done with the grills off as it can affect the sound (especially off axis). The grill frame is in very close proximity to the sides of midrange and sides/top of tweeter. I put them back on when done listening. Real easy as they are held on with magnets.

I used to be in the no grill camp with my 1.2tl's but after swapping the cloith with the stuff I got from Magnepan, there is no need.The Gear...

I'll go on record with a pic of my modest hybrid HT/Music system. Not much but it does the job alright.
H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music. -
