Do you keep your speaker grilles off?

Off for listening, on for the rest of the time to protect my domes and to stop those doped "Sticky" A/D/S mid range domes from picking up any crap they don't have too.

Worth it to own such musical sounding speakers.
 
Different speakers require different approaches. I find my smaller more modern speakers are better sans grills, my larger vintage models with their grills in place.
 
All 7 rooms in my house`s A/V system`s speaker`s grill`s are always on.
`Cause you never know, even though my house is a controlled environment with no wife, children, dog, cat.
or undisciplined visiting friend`s children running wild.

My speakers have their clothes on, and will always be that way, except to service them, especially since I chose to listen to music and not stare at my raw speakers component`s watching the lower frequency driver`s cone movement, since the HQ room`s speakers sound stage permits the sound field to recede past the apparent location of the speakers, as I set them to do.

I don`t care to watch meters, or speaker cone movements whilst listening to music.
Strange, I guess, but to each their own.

Sometimes off, sometimes on. Lately on.

Sure, all canines(Cosmo included) are welcome here, just no lifting the leg, or squatting to mark territory on inside house items !! :no:
And that would include you too Chris, if you`re so inclined ! :eek: :) HA !!
 
Back in the "hay day" of very loud and A-kicking bass for the Club environment.. DJs or their dance halls loved to show off the 15 and 18" woofers :banana:

Fast forward, end of night and early morning sunrise.. those well crafted Cerwin Vega and other designer driver voice coil protectors.. were usually decimated :wtf:
