Refinish speaker in different color


I don't know if anyone has tried this but I have a pair of speakers in black ash but would like to have a different finish on it, preferably cherry or light maple.

I got them for a very good price and since they are in black ash, I guess nobody wanted them.

Can this be done?

Here's a though:

Why not re-veneer them. I had a pair of B&W DM302's veneered by a local cabinet maker a few years ago. He removed all the drivers, sanded them and attached new veneer using a vacuum press. Granted, it cost $300, which is about what the speakers cost new, but the wife is happy which is the important part.

PS-I'm a weekend woodworker. I haven't done any veneering myself yet; I like to work with solids.
