I found the most important areas to protect a speaker when shipping and even having them moved by movers is when packing them try your best to protect the corners they seem the most fragile, and also the bottom area of the speaker. I boxed up a pair of sound dynamics 300ti and a pair of small proac tabletts without a hitch buy double boxing them and then wrapping as much unused cardboard around the corners and edges and securing with packing tape...also stuffing the heck with more unused cardboard at the sides and also areas that I felt would easily be crushed. I also found cheap pillows from walmart used on the bottom and top to be an added protection. I would think that a really heavy speaker, that I would look to either look to have it crated or sell it locally. I hope this helped.
Speaker Packing?
I need some help. I buy and sell all kinds of stuff on Audiogon but have hesitated to pack and ship full size speakers. Do FedEx or other shippers come into your home and pack/pick-up big items like speakers? Anyone have any experience with this. Thanks in advance.
