    Thats just as bad, if something isnt finished to the same high standards internally as externally it will equally do my nut in

    Have noticed some Ditton 44's have lost their metal mesh tweeter covers for the HF2000,
    is there any interest on my pair before i toss them in the bin?, perfect in every way,
    all it needs is the thinnest sliver of double sided tape cut to shape and job jobbed.

    PM me with details if interested and i'll pop them in the post FOC.

    P.S. Been listening to these and are stupid good btw, as Dave said a bit boomy at higher volumn levels as it's on the floor but they are braw in everyway.

    Dan,

    It's the metal grills, the perimeter paper can't be retrieved, my attempts at taking them off just tore them, PM details and i'll drop them in the post.

    Metal grilles are available, just ask Stirling Broadcast in the first instance...

    Regarding getting them off the floor, you don't need £100+ stands. What about good old decorative house-bricks or breeze blocks for research purposes.........?
