Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Reference 4 Meta grille pack?

Align the grille with the speaker baffle and gently press it into place. The grille uses magnetic attachment points, so it snaps on securely without tools. To remove, carefully pull the grille away from the speaker starting from one corner.

How should I clean the black cloth grille?

Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently wipe away dust. For light dirt, a slightly damp cloth with plain water works well. Avoid using any cleaning solvents, sprays, or abrasive materials, as they can damage the fabric or the finish. Never use liquid cleaners or sprays directly on the grille cloth.

Can I vacuum the grille to remove dust?

Yes, but use a low-suction vacuum with a soft brush attachment. Hold the nozzle a few inches away from the grille to avoid pulling the fabric out of shape. For deeper cleaning, remove the grille from the speaker first.

Will the grille affect sound quality?

The Reference 4 Meta Black Cloth Grille is designed to be acoustically transparent, meaning it has minimal impact on sound. For critical listening, you can remove the grille, but most listeners will not notice a difference with it on.

How do I store the grille when not in use?

Store the grille flat or upright in a dry, dust-free area. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of it, as this can deform the frame or crease the cloth. If stacking, place a soft cloth between grilles to prevent scratches. Always store grilles in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight.
