Subwoofers - Grille off or on?

I know speakers always sound best with the grilles off. Does this apply for subs too, or does it not matter?

If a grill does in fact attenuate the treble some speakers may infact be made with a hot tweeter to account for the grills. Its matter of opinion and personal choice but it is not fact. I dont like the look of speakers with grills off, reminds me of college kids for some reason but I also dont hear a negative in sound so that works for me, others like them off and thats cool too.
