moh.vze.com Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 First of all, has anyone here used carpet from PartsExpress? If yes, would you recommend if and if not, where do you recommend I buy carpet for my speakerbox? Secondly, I noticed there were two different versions of carpet. This one is "on sale" but costs more and you get less: https://www.parts-express.com/duralock-backed-speaker-cabinet-carpet-black-yard-48-wide--260-762 and this one: https://www.parts-express.com/speaker-cabinet-carpet-jet-black-yard-54-wide--260-768 Here's the charcoal version: https://www.parts-express.com/speaker-cabinet-carpet-covering-charcoal-yard-54-wide--260-765 vs https://www.parts-express.com/duralock-backed-speaker-cabinet-carpet-charcoal-yard-48-wide--260-764 What it do mane? Is one better quality than the other?

Triticum Agricolam Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 I've always used the cheaper carpet from Parts Express and I've had good luck with it. I would buy it again.

audiofanaticz Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Ive used this a few times, its alright, but I personally don't care for it. https://www.parts-express.com/speaker-cabinet-carpet-jet-black-yard-54-wide--260-768 The reason these 2 linked below cost more for less carpet is because they are "backed" So they will be slightly stronger against abuse however be aware that the carpet will not stretch no where near as good, nor will it form into tight spaces and gaps. So if your carpeting a box and use carpet seams (like I do) this is the wrong carpet to use!https://www.parts-express.com/duralock-backed-speaker-cabinet-carpet-black-yard-48-wide--260-762 https://www.parts-express.com/duralock-backed-speaker-cabinet-carpet-charcoal-yard-48-wide--260-764 So if anything, use the 54 inch wide stuff that is NOT backed, unless there is some reason that you really need it backed, but it will be a pita to work with. I need to order a couple new rolls soon, really loving the stuff Im currently using, but I need to find the label to figure out where it came from and order it if its not too insanely expensive.
