Paint It Black!

Paint It Black!

I have finished the custom job I did on my Xone DX and I am quite pleased with the results. I also painted my Mackbook Pro (metallic silver) to mattblack to match the DX.

Sorry for the poor picture quality. You can check bigger images in my Gallery page.
Cheers

Looks very sleek and nice! Where/how did you get the faceplate printed?

Re: Paint It Black!

Thanks. The faceplate was done by silkscreen printing

Looks much better than the original, good job!

woww
very cool and sexy

i may paint mine too. how hard is it to remove all knobs, faders…?

Looks very nice me gusta.

Re: Paint It Black!

Thanks. Removing all the knobs, faders and insides may seem like a daunting task, but its a bit simpler than you would think. You can manage to get it all off wit a phillips, trox (size 7 + 8) and wrench (i belive 11). Its just paying attention to where all the attachments are when you are taking it apart. I have come to a greater appriciation of the build quality that A&H have put in it. I also know it now, inside out. I find that reassuring and it makes me more confident with the unit.

Hey bro’, nice to share it on here as well! :slight_smile:

Question. How did you do the macbook? I can imagine me doing that, and it going horribly, horribly wrong… Although i have a VAIO with a plastic back and a bunch of stickers - so I wouldn’t paint it anyway… But still.

@tekki: you know it! :slight_smile:

I just cleaned the macbook with acetone and then spray painted it.

Niiiiice :slight_smile:
