Newer L1 Cylindrical Radiator(r) loudspeakers have bayonets with three holes. With the upper L1 on a table or floor, you can easily unscrew the two Phillips-head screws from the Bayonet and reposition the Bayonet so that it does not protrude as much out from the upper L1. This gains you an extra inch of space when mounting/dismounting the upper L1 in places where the ceiling height is less than ideal.

Everything I could find on this (going back to 2003) suggests that on the early L1® Classics it was possible, but tricky to remove the grilles, but it was also problematic to get them reseated properly. | |||

:With regard to "adhesive tape" I could not find anything written by Bose in these forums about the method by which the grilles are secured to the Cylindrical Radiator®s. | |||
:The Model Is and Model IIs are built differently than the Classics and in December 2007 <br>MikeZ-at-Bose said "the grill can't be taken off without destroying it". [http://bose.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/3976055944/m/2801027415?r=6541037415#6541037415 source] | |||
:Since then Bose has been silent regarding removing or replacing the grilles and details on how they are affixed. | |||
:Ken-at-Bose has said <br>"If you'd like us to help you with the dented grill, you must call our service folks." [http://bose.infopop.cc/eve/forums?a=tpc&f=867107664&m=3741079065&r=6781045165#6781045165 source] | |||
:Neil-at-Bose has said<br>"Replacement grills are not sold for the unit. We at Bose are unable to provide instructions on self repair as it would void the manufacturer's warranty.<br><br>More information on our limited product warranty may be found [http://toonz.ca/bose/wiki/index.php?title=Warranty_Information here]" - [http://bose.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/867107664/m/3741079065?r=1451058165#1451058165 source]<br><br>I am sorry that I can't give you anything more useful in terms of things that you can do on your own. | |||
