The custom slip covers from [http://entsyscorp.stores.yahoo.net/bol1slco.html EntSysCorp] appear to be well made and nicely finished. I have no long term experience with this fabric (flame retardant spandex), but wouldn't expect any difficulty with it. There is plenty of material to cover both the {{m1}} and {{m2}}

The white covers are '''very''' stark white. I would not expect to find many walls this shade of white, but I think it would match white fabrics used at formal events like weddings. So this may be a good solution for making the black {{CR}}s blend in with a light background wall or formal white backdrop.

==== White on Black ====
There was a discussion on the [http://bose.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/867107664/m/3191054245?r=3191054245#3191054245 Bose L1® Message Board] about these covers and some commented that there was visual problem with the {{CR}} being white and the Power Stand being black. I did not find this to be an issue. The Power Stand is not really visible at a distance. If it is visible, it is not visually striking because it is on the floor. It is hard to miss the {{CR}} though.  I did not find it particularly troubling that the Power Stand did not match the {{CR}}.

The custom slip covers do what you expect, transforming your black {{CR}} to another colour quickly without much fuss. When I first thought about the price I was a little taken aback, but on reflection - if you need to make your {{CR}}s fit in to a white environment, I can't imagine a more cost effective way to do it.

I normally use a [[Wallacher Guitar Hangers|Wallacher Guitar Hanger]] on my {{CR}} but of course, this was incompatible with having a custom slip cover installed. I am sure that if I needed to work out a solution for this, something could be done.
