Shipping from US to Europe, best company?

Need to ship a pair of very heavy, very expensive speakers from the US to Italy, what recommendations would any one have as far as a shipper/carrier?

Thanks in advance!

I shipped Wilson Speakers to Hong Kong, arrived the next day and it cost about $400-500. The downside is that you need to be able to set up a commercial account (so if you own your business) that shouldn't be a problem.
