Nice speaks! Got any pics of the nameplate on the back?

About the grilles, I noticed that while the newer design is nicer, the way it attaches to the speaker. The tab thing on the grill would be easy to break off, and yes it looked like they were just hot glued in. No complaints as I am very carefull with my audio stuff so it should never break. They will probbly send you a new grill. Too bad about the chips in the finish.
