Fantastic work!<br /><br />How long did it take to modify the speakers? Did you completely disassembled them? Please give us more details of your white beauties :-)&nbsp;<br /><br />On the photo your frets seem to look far better than the white frets of the Beolab 8000 or 9 because I can&#39;t see the speakerholes on yours! The white frets on Beolab 8000 and 9 look... ugly and cheap.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/355505.aspxTue, 24 Jan 2012 05:33:56 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:355505Yendys0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/355505.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=355505I wasn&#39;t into White!
