wuzzzer Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I've shipped Quartets which are only slightly smaller than Fortes. What I did was go to Home Depot and buy the hard foam insulation boards, cut them to fit around the speaker. I put two layers of foam board around each speaker. Bought a cardboard box that I put on one side of the speaker, then flipped the speaker upside down and put another box on the other side. Taped everything up and was good to do. If you go that route, place the speakers upside-down in the box if they have the factory risers installed. Write 'THIS END UP' on all sides of the boxes. The risers can be damaged pretty easily if dropped hard on that end of the speaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merkin Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 If you write this side up on all sides of the boxes which side should they put up. I've worked in freight. If you want it to survive packet so that any end can be up and also be able to stand weight stacked on ot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daddy Dee Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 lovely speakers. wish i was in the market. in case you do have to ship, wuzzer has written excellent advice. i've shipped speakers doing the same thing. This is the easiest way to have adequate packing for the speakers to survive the ups fedex gorillas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
