Well a complete turnaround peoples. I saw a vid-clip of us and loved the look of my yellow cones on stage, so yellow they be staying.

Re the question, I'd guess an acrylic spray gently applied whilst the speakers where being driven might do no harm (structurally not sure about tone) but I'd not promise it. Surely a back cloth behind the grill is the way to go.

Agreed. I can't see that thinly sprayed black paint would cause any functional harm to the speaker but the additional mass of the paint would likely have an effect on the tone. Whether it would be good or bad or even noticeable is almost impossible to say, so it will depend largely on how brave you feel with a spraycan!

I wouldn't risk it myself - especially when a black cloth behind the grill is an easily reversible thing to try first.
