It can be rectified with a simple mesh grill, which fits in the flared opening of the port. The design is non-restricting and can be added or removed as desired. - Ross Connolly Fri, 01 May 2009 13:12:07 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/home-theater-speakers/614-are-audio-light-roast-speakers.html#comment-1819 I just like to point out the reason why other manufacturers place open ports on any surface of the speaker cabinet, even the bottom cleared by feet, and place only place passive radiators and not open ports on top of the speaker cabinets: To prevent all sorts of things from falling into the speaker cabinet interior! What happens to any open vases or glasses those are left out in the open for a long time? Pretty soon they are all filled with debris and dirt, and that is why we have lids for these open top devices! - cwnyc Fri, 01 May 2009 07:34:31 +0100
