What is the inside diameter of the MM12 grille? I'm thinking about buying one for my Atlas 12 cause they look awesome, but I need to know if it will fit.

    aint going to happen, youd have to dremel out way too much to get the excursion of the sub to fit, youd have to dremel out so much itd leave a hole

    ooh, what about a custom glass grille? or sheet metal, that might work better.

    Excursion isn't a problem since my sub is flush mounted. I'd have plenty of space.

    well, does anyone have the internal dimensions of the grille? My sub is 12.5 inches around the outside. The grille just has to be at least that big.

    hey austin... talk to Bobby Gately from www.gatelyaudio.com


    he is most likely going to build me the plexi grill i want for my amps... he does alot of sub grills and mostly plexi glass.... tell him what you want and I'm sure he can recreate it.

    yeah, it's Audiobahn, but I actually really like the look of it, and it's much cheaper than the polk momo grille. Better than this anyway... :)

    I went ahead and ordered it. I like it because it's not the typical grille cloth or grid-style grille. It looks different, like the momo grille. $10 shipped is a heck of a lot cheaper than anything else I found online.

    Well, I guess I chimed in here a little too late, but I really don't like. And I love the MOMO grills. Anyhoo, for $10, it's not a big loss if you end up not liking it.
