More car audio than Hi-Fi, but any suppliers of speaker grill cloth other
than the usual suspects like Wilmslow and Falcon?

Ideally a plain light/mid grey material. Closest I could find is more of a
charcoal.

Needs to be the usual strong but slightly stretchy stuff.

Or is there a generic fabric that would be ok?

Any leggings or stretch top from Primark.
Plenty of colours and patterns to choose from.

I did wonder about a Lycra type material. But proper speaker fabric tends
to stretch a little then becomes 'solid' as it were. So that it can be a
nice tight fit, but extends a degree of protection to the units. Also has
to be the exact plain colour to be better than what I have at the moment.

Who remembers tigan. We used a lot of it in the 60s. Kind of woven plastic,
but not very stretchy.

Yes - that would do very well. It stretches a little bit and then no more.

But the exact colour is the important bit since it has to match other
things.

The good bit about Tigan was that it shrunk if heated. Just stretch it
onto the frame and staple it, then stand it in front of the fire for
ten minutes and bingo, nice tight fabric.
