Hey guys,

Well the time has come and I'm about to move out of my apartment and into a house. I've started packing up my stereo and I'm down to packing the speakers. I can't decide if I should pack my Lsi15s in their original boxes with all the packing materials or if I should just put them in my car with some blankets and make a special trip. It should be noted that I'm extremely anal and any mark will make me cry, literally:o . I'm only moving 3 miles away and I have a hatchback. I'm leaning towards not packing them up. Any thoughts?

    I would move them unpacked in my vehicle because I'm bad ****. Your **** may vary.

    I've handled loudspeaker cargo many, many times and the only problem I had was with Carver Amazing's in my work truck. Real men don't use packaging but I would have slipped on some panties to transport them in hindsight.

    I repack mine even if they are just moving to another room in my house.

    If they are still a bit damp, swampy panties should only be used to vigorously polish them after the move. If they've dried out, give em back to Doro to wear for a bit.:D
