The receiver and speaker were designed to workexclusively together ; the amplifier’s audio response was specifically “shaped” with a bass boost to compensate for the small size of the speakers. The Model Eight challenged this by providing superior sound in two small, solid-walnut “shoebox-sized” cabinets.

Replacement Grill KLH Model Eight Radio & Thirteen Speaker EGGSHELL White NEW
High quality grill replacement for KLH Model Eight and Thirteen speakers, off-white/eggshell color. Brown is NOT the correct color for KLH Eight grills, despite nearly all of them looking that way today. If you peel off the KLH badge or flip the original grill over, you can see they are white, or close to it. Please have a look at the photos I’ve included, it shows the difference quite well. If your Model Eight is like most, the original speaker grill is probably damaged, stained, yellowed, or just plain missing. If you’ve taken the time and effort to refinish the beautiful walnut cabinets (or are planning to), the old grill can look out of place. If you are lucky enough to have an Eight with mint cabinets, a new grill will restore it’s original appearance. Cabs a little worn? New grills will freshen things right up. Have a model Thirteen to go with your Eight, but the grilles are different? Now you can finally match them up. KLH’s original grill material is a fairly rigid nylon weave that turns brown with time and exposure to UV light, dirt, and cigarette smoke. The new grill is a semi-rigid, acoustically transparent fabric that replicates the original weave almost perfectly. This one is off white, and as mentioned is as close to original as you can get. It also looks superb with white-knobbed Model Eights. The new fabric has been cut to the exact dimensions of the old grill and slips into the recess in the front of the cabinet in exactly the same way. All new grills are test-fit before shipping. Please be aware there are slight differences in the Eight speaker cabinets over the years-some are solid walnut, others are veneer, and regardless of construction type, they are not all exactly the same size. Should you receive a grill that won’t fit properly, simply contact me for a solution. This listing is for ONE GRILL ONLY. No radio, speaker, or KLH badge are included, photos are samples to show the finished look. If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
