teaman 2053 Posted January 19 Just now, Budman said: on his return trip the speakers he will be picking up at my house are quite a bit larger ( 81 K-horns ) to deliver them to Larry in Tenn. We talked briefly about the rest of his trip and his return with the Khorns. He is quite a generous man. Great that Larry was interested in your K's too. Always nice to see your loved ones go to good homes. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ForKyleigh 15 Posted February 19 Looking to see if anyone is coming from the St. Paul MN are towards the east side of Wisconsin any time soon.

y2keglide 100 Posted March 17 Has anyone here ever shipped a set of K-horns? I posted my Speakerlab Klipschorn clones for sale on craigslist and got a call from a guy in Ohio who wants them really bad but I'm out on the West coast in Washington state. Is it crazy to even think of shipping these beasts out there? I tied UPS and FedEx shipping calculators but didn't have much luck trying to get a price. I can palletize them but I don't have a forklift to put them in my pickup so I guess I'd need to have a carrier with a liftgate and pallet jack pick them up. I was a little surprised to get a call from someone that far away but after a chat I'm sure he is genuine and not a scammer. I'm thinking shipping costs may well be a deal breaker but if someone has found a way and done it before I'm all ears. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've had alot of big stuff shipped to me all the way up to Maine so there are people out there who will do whatever it takes to get what they want. I've had 8 MWM bass bins, complete KP600 system, 2 tuba tht subs, 402 horns, 4 pairs of Cornscala's, Jubilee's. .. all shipped to me. I used Uship for alot of it and only had one bad experience shipping the KP600's, the dude thought he could load them on a box truck "dock high" by himself.

You need to be able to build a wood crate to put them in and set it on a pallet. Really, the only decent way you can make this happen for a reasonable cost is if you have a friend that works at a place with a doc and they can load and ship them with a forklift. The eliminates the high cost of having a lift gate truck with a pickup at a private residence. A local sale is much easier... 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks,I pretty much came to that conclusion myself so it's not likely going to happen. I just don't have time for it and I live out in the sticks 30 miles from the city. Too bad ,had a guy that really wanted my Speakerlab Super K's but he's in Ohio and I'm in Washington (state). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pickup and holding them seems to be the tough part. Going north on 95 could also work, more people going east west then north south right now. Thank you, Mark Any chance anyone is headed this way?

Shako 1 Posted May 20 I once shipped large speakers on a pallet through ABF freight. They gave me quite a good rate/discount. Nice people. Had to go to the terminal to drop off and buyer to pick up. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woofers and Tweeters 4031 Posted May 27 Unless something changes, I will be dragging a 19' flatbed trailer from Lexington Ky to Northampton, MA and back, soon. Not sure what rout I will be coming back. Have someone to see in Altoona PA, so I might be going that way. If anyone knows of someone who can haul a ~4,100 lb CNC mill from MA to KY, it is worth money to me. 😎 It is not on a pallet and would have to be secured and tarped, so a common carrier will not touch it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
