I conducted a very scientific experiment on the walnut natural satin durability.
Try that with a glass of ice water ...
I started this thread because of what I was observing moving the speakers around. In one instance the bottom of an M3 lightly bumped into the side my EP600 as I was moving it and left a very shallow indent. Normally this would not be a problem but the finish and veneer is so thin and/or the material below it compresses easier then I'd expect. Just struck me that I needed to be more careful than I usually would with typical finished wood stuff. The next observation came when I must have picked up a grain of dirt on the bottom of an M3 and placed it on top of another M3. When I moved it off I slid it and it left a nice scratch down to the wood or even the base material. Think it would disappear with a bit of teak oil but one has to wonder if the finish was harder if it would have scratched at all.
