Commercial air travel with a speaker


Does any member have experience flying domestic US commercially with a hifi speaker? Willing to buy a seat/ticket for it,  I just don't want to be halfway across the country and have issues.  TSA looks to be OK with it.  Any real-world experience out there?

If you’re trying to take it on the plane with you, it has to be able to go through the Same scanner your shoes go through.  Not sure what speaker you are talking about, but I’m guessing at 83 lbs, it will be too big. UPS, FEDEX will do it all for a price.  I’ve sent amps that way before.

All the best.

I can't believe this hasn't been asked yet, but what kind of hifi speaker is 83 pounds and is not part of a stereo pair?

It's a center channel.  36x11x17 roughly.  I talked to the seller and he is going to take it to UPS and have them pack/ ship. I shouldn't have to fly out there.  Thanks for everyone's feedback.
