Opinions on which speakers/grilles to get?

I was thinking of ordering these from Bob Roberts:

But, they are unshielded. Will this cause me grief with my monitor? Any opinions on the best speaker/grille combo out there? I'm not looking to go expensive.

You will want shielded speakers, happ sells some for under $10.00 i like the creative 2.1 hack but its really how much money you want to spend.

I went with some plat panel Monsoon speakers, but they are pretty hard to find now.  I would search for flat panel speakers with an external volume control personally.

Something like >these<

divemaster127:

i agree big time, the external speaker setting is nice, with the creative 2.1 hack i also have that & i just hid the volume control on my cab

I went to radio shack,  picked up these speakers for $15.00:



Busted them all to hell...



Installed the drivers here (the speaker grills push on and pull off as they did on on the original speaker enclosures):



And installed the entire faceplate with on/off switch,  volume and as a bonus,  a headphones socket,  to the top of my cabinet:



I am going to paint it black shortly.

It works nicely...the sound is easily better than stock (I have a single mono speaker JAMMA cabinet)...and the headphones socket is a bonus!
