Hi,

Would anyone know where I can either purchase a new set of black front cloth frets for my vintage Beovox S75s, or, get my old frets refurbished. 

Approximate costs would also be good.

Also, I have a set of scratched anodised silver metal stands for the S75s. Where can I get these refurbished and again, approximate cost would be helpful. 

Many thanks to anyone who can provide me with a steer.

Warmest,

C

Why not do it yourself?

Speaker grille cloth - https://www.nexxia.co.uk/product-category/audio-accessories/acoustic-speaker-cloth

And I would paint the stands with alloy wheel spray paint. Preparing them properly by rubbing them down and possibly filler are the way to go. Did my M100 stands that way.

Anodising properly would be expensive.

The original stands are not anodized.
They are painted.
It's iron - not alu. They rust if stored in moist conditions.
But that only makes them easier to restore.

Thank you to everyone for the great advice. Much appreciated.

Regrettably I’m neither time rich or particularly good with my hands but will give it a try.

Thanks again.
