ThanksSmile im considering making another pair in different colours, but can figure out what colour theme to use. Green white looks good... maybe black and orange?

A lot of people here have changed the fabric (or cloth or canvas ?) of their Beolab/Beovox.

I'm surprised of such a low participation !?!

So here's mine:

Nothing innovative in term of design or colors, but may be in the way it's been done...

No animals were harmed in this operation Wink (and no adhesive used...)

I re-clothed my CX50's one time, but I just used black, so there's really not much to see (in terms of creativity).

If my memory serves me well, I do recall a pair of RL's with Peter and Svend's faces on them. And of course, there are those customised BS1's on eBay with horrible leopard print, or college team logos (we've all seen them).

Don't forget the famous fabric selector's vision in red (and orange ?)

Very nice looks good. Havent thought about using strecth pants Cool it fits the year of the speakers.

My p45s looks much better with hessian than the original cloth imo, very retro, perfect for 1977 speakers.

Leslie once clothed some BL6000s in tights (old forum) however from memory they were fashionably black

Leslie is doing a wonderful job every time!

I too tried black tights (with patterns), but the solid red fits the bl2500 better to my taste...

It also will be interesting to see this kind of pattern :

Change the word "fabric" by whatever you want, I suggest cloth and pantyhose Yes - thumbs up

Then chose "Images" to filter...
