A good many of these classic speakers were sold but relatively few come up for sale.  They were very special in thir original form but are completely transformed in their modern Mark IV configuration, all the raw speakers used also in Van Schweikert's current $12,000 Endeavor E-3 speaker, though the 2 piece VR-4jr cabinets, now specially damped, may perform and look better.  When set up they can be absolutely invisible.  The beautiful veneer is Cherry wood, though there is a very small nick as illustrated.  Otherwise they are pristine.  They will be delivered in their original plywood packaging.  Or they can be picked up or possibly delivered within NYC metro area.

Here are some reviews of the original Von Schweikert VR-4jr:

The Absolute Sound review is no longer on-line, but I would be happy send it.

Here is a discussion of the upgrade to the Von Schweikert VR-4jr Mk IV:

The upgrade uses the same speaker drivers and much else that is used in the company's Endeavor E-3 MkII
Here is The Absolute Sound's original review of the Endeavor:

For that reason Van Schweikert now calls it the VR-4jr E-3 MkII Upgrade.  You
You send them the speaker and $5000 and pay for its return.  Von Schweikert describes it here:

$4000 OBO

I have this upgrade and it was well worth the investment.  Those are my black gloss speakers in the what’s best forum.  Good luck with your sale - that is a great price that you are offering.

Hi Scott,

Good to hear from you.  Nice to know that you're still enjoying the VR-4jr Mark IVs.  I remember well how you managed to get your speaker in its great piano-like finish.

Cheers.
