How to ship high-end speakers?


I've recently inherited a set of Martin Logan speakers. I have no idea how to ship these...do I ship them vertically with a "this side up", or on their backs/fronts, etc?

Any thoughts would be helpful!

The only way to properly ship these speakers is with the Original Boxes! If not then your stuck with local pickup. Call Martin Logan and see if they sell boxes or know of some place that makes them.

Dang...I won't be able to find the original boxes, I doubt my dad kept them around. Is there a good "second best" way to ship them, assuming that I won't be able to drive them back myself?

Maybe like golf clubs with that expanding foam, assuming it doesn't hit the cone? Maybe with some of those "shock sensors" that break if the box falls more than a couple inches?

Best effort shipping is fine here; I won't be able to drive them 1000 miles....

I'm only here for a few more days, so I doubt ML could get me a box before I had to head home..

Thanks!
