Because of this we had to reset the speaker and straighten the grill, which was too thin and flimsy.

During shipping and handling the subwoofer proceeded to smash the metal grill and rip the grill screws out

The grill is garbage, Im gonna assume the whole speaker is second rate at best

The speaker enclosure should be built with better material and the grill of thicker material.

02/0718: One of the subs arrived with a dented grill, not horrible but still not flat

They also saved money by using plastic hardware instead of metal, but the handles and pole mount are sturdy enough for the purpose so no real harm i practical terms either, the grill is metal mesh and while not the heaviest, it would still take a good hit to actually damage the driver, not to mention it lends a nice element to the appearance of the speaker
