<font color='#000000'>I clearly measured the effect of keeping the grills on my speakers (not Axioms). I suspect the proximity of the grill frame causes this rippled effect above ~3Khz. The red line is with the speaker grill off and the blue line is with it on.

Thanks for the real interesting graph, now this will force me to keep my grills open at the risk of dust and prying fingers.

<font color='#000000'>I usually leave my grills on most of the time - even for movies. I only pop them off when I am doing some critical listening or demo'ing my system.
