speaker grille

Perforated audio cover

A speaker grille is the protective cover over a speaker, typically a perforated metal, plastic, or fabric screen that allows sound to pass through while shielding the delicate cone and components from damage.

Most speakers can function with the grille removed, but it guards against dust, poking fingers, and accidental impacts: The cat clawed through the speaker grille.
