It really depends on a couple of factors. I recently shipped a 305lb crate of Avalon Opus from SC to Illinois and used Bax and they couldn't have been better to deal with. Great service, very professional, and extremely courteous. I would have had them ship back the Kharma CE 1.0s that I had traded for except that they would not pick up from a residence so I ended up shipping them via Fedex, which worked out well too, albeit a good bit more expensive. I'm sure there are a number of reputable shipping firms that other Audiogoners have used with equal success. A couple of issues that you may have to deal with may determine who you use are: 1)weight of crates or cartons, 2) physical size, 3)where the speakers will be shipped from, and 4)insurability. I assumed that it would be very easy and it ended up being much more involved than I had originally thought. If you are buying from a dealer or business, they'll take care of all the arrangements and charge you accordingly. If you are buying from an individual, it could be a little more difficult and you'll have far fewer options. Good luck!!!
