SL2 Grills

maybe repost in HiFi Corner-more likely to get picked up there

Thomas, last I heard Tom Tom Audio were getting some made so probably worth giving them a ring or dropping them an e-mail.

I got some from musicline! So I think they are available.

Tom Tom delivered a beautiful pair of pre-loved SL2s to my place yesterday with a set of new grilles - i can confirm that they appear to be identical to the originals and they're sounding absolutely splendid!

thanks all, trust musicline or tomtom should work,

cheers, thomas

In case anyone‘s (still) looking for new SL2 grilles Tom Tom now has them in stock. I just ordered a pair myself.

Thanks William. Brilliant news. Well done Tom Tom!

I’ve just ordered some too. Let’s hope they have enough. 

Presumably as these are after market grills manufactured by Tom Tom itself rather than Naim originals they can always make more if they run out due to demand.

Actually I was just getting used to them bare after I had to discard the old grilles. They look kind of quirky.

Hi all, my new SL2 grills arrived from TomTom this morning. Absolutely fantastic, indistinguishable from the originals (apart from the fact that my originals have started to disintegrate ????). A quality product, well done James and Co.

That’s very reassuring. How long did they take to arrive?

Fantastic John. I’m sure there will be plenty of demand for these. Enjoy...

Hi HH, placed my order on Thursday evening and they arrived this morning.

cheers

John

If they are anything like their SBL grills they will be fantastic quality. Another well done to TomTom for supporting the SL2s. Due to numbers sold I expect there might be less profit in them hence the slightly higher price. Well worth it IMO.

Thanks John. I ordered mine on Friday so hopefully they will come next week. I ordered via their web shop. The current grilles aren’t that crumbly, but keep coming detached. It’ll be really good to have nice new ones, particularly given the very positive reports here. I’d lost hope that good quality replacements would ever be available, so it’s great that James has gone for it. The SL2s are truly wonderful speakers and it will be lovely to see them looking good as new. 

You are right HH. My original grills had started leaving the dreaded "black dust" on the lower cabinet lip and were becoming increasingly easily detached. Strange "hollows" had started to appear on the onsides too.  Great that we now have support for these fantastic speakers, I can assure you that you will not be disappointed, enjoy.

This is good news. I looked on the Tom Tom site a few weeks ago and didn't see them. Mind you they were supposed to notify me when they had them in stock after I contacted them when I got the SL2s last summer.

Mine arrived yesterday - many thanks to Team Tom Tom, speakers look new again!

They will probably outlive me now 

Mine arrived first thing this morning. They are really good and stick on like limpets. A gust of wind could probably have blown the old ones off. 

Glad you are pleased with them, I do like the veneer on your SL2,s.....don,t see that sort of quality very often he’s days. You seem to have a fishy theme going this afternoon, mullets on one thread and now limpets.
