Could you use a little advice on recently delivered speakers..

If it was a much more pricy speaker, I would buy from a dealer. I would say given the cost of the units. giving it to UPS was a reasonable choice. I am sure the vast majority of the time they arrive in perfect shape. 

UPS Stores (not the same as UPS the carrier) use bubble wrap and/or styro peanuts. I’ve never seen them use foam. That’s not OK for our purposes. A proper foam cradle / cage is THE way to pack expensive & heavy gear. Two types: open cell, closed cell (polyethylene). Both fantastic. Closed cell is better for the heaviest items. This is what companies like ARC and VAC use, for good reason. VAC’s foam material in particular is fantastic (multiple layers bonded). You can get similar foam on amazon; it’s not cheap. I’ve used that before, cut to purpose, for the rare times I didn’t have factory packing of a heavy component.

 Seems odd that people spend big bucks on devices that absorb/prevent/disperse vibration, even micro-vibrations such as equipment shelving, amp and speaker stands or footers, would think that a major cause of those vibrations, ie. speakers that have a loose termination wouldn't cause negative sound quality. Why even bother with isolated/dual isolation chassis equipment, or turntable mats and such? Just put the turntable on the speaker and let it fly?

Recently I purchased a B&O Beogram 8002 on eBay. Photos and description was acceptable. I contacted seller before I pulled the trigger and he assured me he was a professional at packing. I asked him if he was aware of the "transport" screws to lock down the arm/table. He replied in an iffy response. So I sent him the B&O transport instructions and told him I would pay extra for double box. In short I received a POS that had the tonearm taped down and the platter was at about °15 from level. It was trashed! It took about 7months to get most of my money back. Then saw the same table from same seller for sale described as perfect condition. 

Sorry I can't seem to post the two pics I had properly. Basically an empty cardboard box with each speaker wrapped in a double layer of bigger bubble bubble wrap. That was it. No layers on sides nor bottom, nothing in between save for the bubble wrap. I was kind of astounded. Just thrown in even a handful of styrofoam peanuts to give me the illusion that you cared.

Does it seem wobbly enough that it could damage itself if you remove a cable?

I like the idea about removing the Driver and accessing it that way to do a simple tighten up.  Call speaker company and ask them about fixing it.  I bet you're dying to see what it looks like inside anyway.
