What kind of 'brackets' are used on the beolab 8000 on this picture (the right one)?
This one hasn't got a top-plate, so looks more like the original beolab 18. I like this al lot!

It's not about the brackets, it's about the lamellas. They are rounded and must be L shaped at the top. I think they're also very thin (not deep). All this to say that this solution involves a lot of woodwork and is certainly not 50€. But indeed the result has nothing to compare with my cheap solution.

You discovered the secret! I think you are correct. The lammellas have a L-shape on top. Looks good, but indeed a lot of woodwork...
I'm going to print your brackets next week and buy all the needed wood. We are going to make 2 sets. For my dad and for myself.

@matador Why are the slots in the 4mm only ~2.2mm deep?
Is this enough to 'clamp/hold' the lammellas firmly?

At first they were meant to be a cradle to hold the sticks with a drop of glue.
But in the end the sticks did click in and stay firmly in place without glue.
The groove is not deep to stay invisible between the lamellas.

Hi Matador and community,
Thanks a million for sharing and uploading the files, this is amazing.
Not knowing anything about 3D printing I sent the STL files to a local printer. He says that the files do not have any measurements.
@styppen asked the question before and was also kind to share mm measurements for x,y and z. But what do these represent?
Could someone please advice how I communicate the measurements to the printer?
Many thanks in advance and apologies for perhaps asking a stupid question.
Best regards from Sweden

The screen capture and measurement from styppen are right.
It's the "bounding box" size of the whole object.
For whatever reason my export do not carry scale information and you have to scale it depending on your printer device. But it should usually be a round factor: x10, x100, x1000.
Anyway, give your supplier the bounding box size and it should work.

Looks very nice. I discovered, the chrome speakers looking much nicer with the wooden frets. Wirh the black covers they looking outdated. I have a black pair and that pair looks good with the original covers.
How can i obtain the files to make the fronts? I don't know nothing about 3d printing but gonna ask a friend.
