Finish Quality of Von Schweikert VR4jr's


I have had a pair of these for about 6 months. I am very happy with the sound quality, but not so thrilled with the durability of the cabinet finish. The scratch extremely easily. I have several fine scratches in the finish, and they look like crap compared to my former Thiel speakers. Those could be wiped off without fear of scratching, unlike the VR4jr's.

Gues the Made in China finish is the reason they are so inexpensive. Too bad, these will not hold value as they will look like old speakers that had a family of kids living around them.

Great sound, poor finish!

My Epos M15 were a lot cheaper than your VR4jr's, but I'm still surprised how sensitive the finish is (read my thread on Epos finish).
In your opinion, is it worth taking the speakers to a good furniture maker for retouching (it's what I'm thinking of doing)?
