The Model Five speakers come with low-profile, magnet-attached grilles. These grilles are designed to protect the drivers and can be easily removed for a different aesthetic or for critical listening, as some audiophiles prefer listening without grilles. To remove, gently pull the grille away from the speaker cabinet. To reattach, align the grille with the cabinet and allow the magnets to secure it in place.
