    Beovox S55 frets?

    Has anyone had a go at recovering the frets on the S55s? looks tricky with the aluminium trim around the edge Hmm

    I am refurbishing a pair with new drivers etc but seems a shame if they are not immaculate visually!

    Thanks for any insights 

    Ray Yes -  thumbs up

    Ray, I have a pair of S45's which I think are the same size. How bad are you originals? If you want I can dig them out and take a look at mine. From memoery they were in good condition.

    They aren't too difficult to do. Use the original cloth as a template and don't be tempted into stretching the new stuff too much. You will also need to source some very lightweight material or you will struggle to reassemble them. Needless to say - be careful not to damage the aluminium trim pieces.
