Does anyone know what happened to the wooden fret and grill manufacturer Prestige Creators? He had a huge presence on eBay. I’d ordered quite a bit of stuff from him, but now he seems to have disappeared. There’s one listing left from him on eBay. A beosound stage cover. The products were great and a great way to make older stuff blend with the newer stuff. I moved recently, and I need to order some new wooden gills for my beolab 1s. If anyone has any leads to the prestige creators whereabouts or an alternative manufacturer, it would be greatly appreciated.
9 March 2024 at 05:19 #53285I got oak grilles for my 8000s, 6000s and 7.2 from him last year. Really impressed with the service and quality. I’ll be gutted if he’s gone out of business.
10 March 2024 at 01:04 #53286From what I understand, they have closed the business.
Was mentioned on the podcast a few weeks ago.
10 March 2024 at 01:36 #53287Yes I just did a search and the companies house listing came up showing them as ‘in liquidation’. Such a pity.
does anyone know of an alternative maker of aftermarket wooden grilles for vintage B&O?
10 March 2024 at 05:54 #53288Such a shame that yet another B&O related business goes under. Here’s to B&O turning it all around and creating many complimentary businesses in the future which will thrive.
11 June 2024 at 11:48 #56429Yes there are some other company’s doing it, the one I know so far is The Cover Company or Also known as M&W Design from Germany. The website was http://www.mw-HiFi.com
they offer covers for almost all products 4000 6000 8000 Beolab 5 7 1 STAGE , BeoVision & so on…
Not all products are in the shop , just contact them via mail or so and ask. I also know they did individual stuff, at a Frankfurt store they have white Acryl bl8000 covers specially made for the shop owner.
I know that they kinda invented and found the wooden grills several years ago for aftermarket B&O stuff before prestige creators and other people crafted & came up with there covers types.with demand it’s often depending sometimes you get you’re order a few days after purchase and sometimes it need 2-3-4 weeks but they always contact you if it takes longer then 2 weeks so that you know about. If there’s a B&O store next to you you can also ask them. I know for example two B&O dealers one in Frankfurt and one in Düsseldorf what have there products at the store.
