Hales Design Group Speakers...Removing the Grills

I am looking for instructions on removing the grills from Hales Design Group speakers without trashing the material. I'd also like to be able to put them back on :). I found some instructions suggesting that you lay them on their back with some books to space the binding posts off the ground...any more technique than that and pulling/prying? How are they actually held on?

Have you actually removed the grills on HDG speakers? They do not simply slide up and off either vertically, or laying on their backs on the ground. The grill is actually just a sock over a metal frame which is attached to the speaker body.

Well, I am going in for a few reasons, namely:
1. Used to live with a smoker, and they are probably filthy
2. To dampen the frame with some rubber wedges, as some have suggested
3. To check the tightness of the driver screws and bolts, as suggested.

I may do it tonight...I've got my whole theater torn apart anyway as my pass is in for service.

Well, a few disappointing things. First, I couldn't figure out where I stored the spikes, and that is just irritating. Second, no matter how I tried to work the cloth, it just wouldn't budge. The one place I tried to "force" it, it just stretched the cloth and made a tiny little tearing sound. I'm starting to wonder if I'm supposed to just cut the cloth off and be done with it.
