My white QS8 grills are really dirty. I tried cleaning them with soap and a clean wet cloth but the stains won't come off. Does anyone has any recommendation for the cleaning these white grills?

Have you tried soaking/immersing them in warm water with some mild detergent in it? The frames are plastic, so I don't think it would harm them at all.

I keep a squirt bottle with a solution of water & Bissell Fabric/Carpet Cleaner on hand. Seems to work for most stains that come up with 3 kidlettes around. (Granted, the mixture is much stronger than suggested)

I have not try soaking them in warm water because I thought the water might harm the grills, but I'll give that a try. BTW are the bottow grills of the QS8 removable? I am have having a tough time getting them off and I don't want to damage them by forcing to come off.

Thanks.

I don't know for sure about the QS8, but all 4 grills on my QS4's are removable, and I would assume the same is so for the QS8's. They are on pretty tight, though.

It is only in the last while that the QS series have removable grills over the mid/bass speakers.

According to Joe from Axiom support. The older QS8 (which I have) doesn't have removable top and bottow grills. Only the new QS8 has 4 romovable grills. Oh well.
