I'm looking for idea's on how to re-form the grill cloth on my AR's. It was stretched in front of the woofer with about a 1/2" indent with an area about 3"x4". I was going to try dampening the cloth then drying it with a hair dryer to see if this would tighten it. Any feedback is welcome.

On virtually any of the old AR grill cloth materials (not foam grills or knit grills), you can spray on clear water (probably best to use distilled water) with a water sprayer, and then take either a hair dryer or even a light bulb (held fairly close to the grill), and let the area dry appropriately. As it dries it should tighten significantly. This was also the recommendation that AR would give to customers who complained of this problem.
