Selling speakers here at Audiogon

Packing: No one will pay any potential insurance claim unless you pack as close to the orginal packaging as possible. You will need a minimum of 2" around each speaker using a double walled box. UPS wants 4". I suggest that you look in the Yellow Pages for a cardboard box company and give them a call. They will have double walled boxes for sale, as well as can make custom boxes. Try and use their standard sizes and fill in with foam. They will also have foam and will be able to cut it for you. If you want to DIY, then get 2" white foam insulation from Home Depot and line the box with it. Double layer the top and bottom. Start in the bottom and then the sides. Cut the sides 4" short so you can make a foam cap. Insert the speakers and then fill in all around with double walled corregated. Protect the front (drivers) and rear (binding posts) the best you can. Stap the boxes with fiberglass reinforced tape. The speakers should not move inside the box. They will not get damaged from the outside. The damage comes from them moving inside. Good luck.
