I hope I'm in the right spot, if not move me please. Does anyone know how to remove a scratch from a Gloss Black Piano Finnish Speaker?

If you have the same paint and gloss finish you could lightly sand down the area around it and do a careful touch-up job with the paint and finish. You will have to be meticulous with it though.

Is the scratch just in the clear coat, or does it cut down through the black layer?

Is it one deep scratch or a patchwork of tiny scuffs/scratches?

If it's a single line, then you might be able to minimixe it by coloring in the line with a fine black felt marker or a fine paint pen or something similar. If it's scuff marks then it's a whole different story. Scuffs look natural, while a poor refinishing job looks artificial. You might be best to just leave it alone then, especially if you can't match the paint and the gloss/shine perfectly..
