I'm also looking for a good quality grill cloth. However I'm looking for something as close as possible to the original cloth used by Polk.
The stuff I use is classier looking than the original and is acoustically transparent. The original stuff got in the way of the sound IMHO.The Gear... Carver "Statement" Mono-blocks, Mcintosh C2300 Arcam AVR20, Oppo UDP-203 4K Blu-ray player, Sony XBR70x850B 4k, Polk Audio Legend L800 with height modules, L400 Center Channel Polk audio AB800 "in-wall" surrounds. Marantz MM7025 stereo amp. Simaudio Moon 680d DSD

I agree with you wholeheartedly, however I prefer the original look. Besides I never listen to the speakers with the grills on. -
If you want something that is close to the stock material, this is a very good.

I like the cloth from Magnepan. Just get the stuff they use on the MG 20.7. It is extra sheer to the point of being vaguely see-thru, and is beautiful to look at.The Gear...

Grills on for me, especially with a two year old. Also helpful in protecting Matt’s signature on the crossover plates...The Gear...

Take a pair of Needle Nose Pliers, reach in and grad the clips, unscrew them while slightly pulling outward. Work slowly and they will come right off.
