Very nice modification. Now there speakers look ethereal and chick.

Would you think about mod in case of normal price of maple covers?

Stumbled upon this... gotta say, they look damned good. I very much prefer the solid cone over the tapered one of the 18's. 

Might just be me being nit-picky, but I prefer the look with the bottom 2.5" exposed. Either way though, quite an accomplishment!

Sanjay, you can get these shipped from eBay for around $330/pair. They list for $450 and I offered $330. I got it is Oak wood with Walnut finish. It looks great on my BL 8000s. The custom ones go all the way to the bottom. It took me 10 days from ordering them on eBay to getting them in DC. If you send me a message I can tell you who I got them from and pictures of how they look. For some reason the forum isn’t allowing me to post pictures. 🤷‍♂️

Hello yes very interested Sanjay1970@gmail.com

thank you  

Beautiful installation, the wall mounted speakers and BS9000 with no wires showing, truly represents "peak" B&O to me. And I think the wooden slats look much better on the 8000 than on the 18 with that tacked on tweeter on top. Well done!🤒

Looks beautiful, yo're lucky to get a real set of 18's frets ;)

I saw online that you can buy aftermarket sets for Beolab 8000, based on the Beolab 18's look, but they seem rather expensive (for what it is), I was thinking to create a set myself, as it looks to only be like some 3D printed parts and some wooden parts ... I'll give it a try soon ...

Hi Jaffrey, I read you post and got rather excited. I was wondering where you got a set of custom covers for around 330 US a pair. I'm looking at upgrading my BL8000s to wooden frets. Looking forward to hearing from you.

With kind regards, Bas
