Speaker Cloth in Toronto area?
I need some accoustically transparent speaker cloth to redo one of my
speaker grills that met with an unfortunate accident (otherwise known as 'the dog did it'). I see some speciality places on the Web but they seem to be located in the USA. Can anybody point me to a source in the Toronto, Ontario area? David "The Hamster" Malone |

If you are interested in either just black or just white, then Radio Shack
has it. For other colours or patterns, I do not know. "David Malone" wrote in message ...

Should have thought of that myself. Black should do it although my wife was babbling something about matching the wall colors. Lol. David "The Hamster" Malone |

Hello David,
You can either go to any RadioShack (Now "The Source") and get Black Cloth or you can go to any store that sell fabric and cloth by the meter (just make sure that when you put it close to your mouth that you can breath thrue it with no resistance .Just ask your wife to go with you to choose the colour;-P. That's what I did for my center channel and surround speakers (my wife was very specific "It must match with the decor". I bought mine at FabricVille In Montreal.

I thought it was a specially made fabric for speaker grilles, though? (just make sure that when you put it close to your mouth that you can breath thrue it with no resistance . I have visions of them finding me lying on the floor dead at FabricLand with a swath of unbreathable cloth wrapped around my head... Just ask your wife to go with you to choose the colour;-P. It has to match all the other surround speakers so I'm afraid it'll be basic black. David "The Hamster" Malone |

Look for the slightly stretchy material used in jumpers. I forget what it
is called, I do not mean as tight and stretchy as Spandex. I bought some black and gold material for some speakers I built a couple of years ago. I remember feeling a bit sheepish going around feeling and stretching all the material, thinking all the women in the place were looking at me funny ... "David Malone" wrote in message ...

I noticed the cloth is a bit 'stretchy' and has some give to it. I bought some black and gold material for some speakers I built a couple of years ago.
