My dad bought new speakers and gave me the older ones for my gaming computer. However, they look BAD. Weathered and the speakers and the sub arent the same colour... So how could I paint them without ruining anything? And how could i replace the black cloth mesh cover?
Heres a picture of them: imgur.com/SU7eu
 
They are wonderful !!
You should put them as your avatar !
Really ;
Frankly , :rolleyes:
the grill cloth it's just something that must be put only in REAL need ,like
big dust in the air or kids around ( or pets ! )
I'm a big kid ,too :rolleyes:
But I prefer to roast them from the inside
Something like a microwave oven :rolleyes::crazy:
And what does the grill cloth hide ?
And what type of varnish is now used ? Sticky vinyl ? On cheap
chipboard ?

What about covering them with 1mm laminated steel or aluminum ?
It would become a set of 'tough boxes' !
With many rivets :cool: the cloth would be then substituted by a steel grid .
Next step would be to put aluminum cone woofers ;)
And the 'Alien' picture on the sides :D:p;)
 
If you're going to paint the boxes, it's probably a good idea to remove the grills and drive units first, assuming you can.

Shrunk photo for convenience....
