    I would contact Polk customer service, but I'm positive air freight is a no-no.

    That doesn't make sense. If you can order a pair from Crutchfield, for example, and have the overnighted from one side of the US to the other, what's the difference??

    Call FedEx, I personally refuse to deal with UPS ever since the strike.
