    A well padded, wood crate. Preferable shipped lying on their backs. I say lying on their backs because the heavy crossover coils can get knocked loose in shipping if the speakers take a jolt while they are standing upright.

    Thanks DarqueKnight. (lying on their backs because the heavy crossover coils can get knocked loose in shipping if the speakers take a jolt while they are standing upright) is great advice.

    Yep I have had bad luck with broken drivers due to shipping. When I got them I have found magnets laying on the bottom of the speakers, and crossover parts too. Sometimes a driver will appear seized because the magnet shifted, and stopped cone travel.

    Good luck Ben
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben
