Do you cover your towers?

I guess it would make some sense if you were away, but when at home, If I were you, I would consider getting grills as protection for your speaker drivers and for aesthetic reasons also. Having blankets draped over my speakers would make for a less than desirable appearance in my den and that would piss my wife off, and honestly, I wouldn't like it either.

Undoubtably speakers that have been blanket covered will give a warmer sound.

That explains what I've been hearing! I thought it was the cables I just bought. doh! I wonder if an electric blanket would help even more?

Like chicken soup"It couldn't hurt"I think protecting ones gear keeps it attractive and the resale value's will be higher.

Is it April 1st already? Undoubtably speakers that have been blanket covered will give a warmer sound.

Not a bad idea for me, especially this time of the year. I don't get any direct sunlight but I get a ton of indirect off the snow.

I cover mine with blankets whenever I'm not using them. I do this mainly to keep sunlight off the drivers. My listening room gets a lot of sun.

I keep my grills off. But never thought of covering them. I guess thatsince the drivers are mostly vertical, unless you have Theil or simular. The small amount of dust that accumulates on them would vibrate off whne playing. Also I have a sheep wool duster that I dust the with as well. I guess covering them might save the sunlight from doing any damage if they are in direct sunlight. Interesting idea.
