Moving heavy speakers

Recommended Posts

So I bought these Klipschorns and boy are these dudes heavy!

What do ya'll use to move big heavy speakers around without damaging the floor?

I have hardwood in my listening room and used a hand truck and all the muscle I have left in my 62 year old bod to get them upstairs and I'm thinking about something like these to move things around. I have two Speakerlab K-horns in place now and did scratch the floor a little moving them in and now I plan on moving them out and putting the Klipschorns in their place.

Anyone tried these or have a better system?

i use a simple rug turned upside down on hardwood. i do have the round disc's that are gray in color from Lowes.

i usually remove the round metal plugs on the bottoms of the speakers and put the soft side of the 2 piece velcro on all 4 corners

If you must lift them get some appliance lifting straps. It’ll still require 2 people but you’ll not need to bend over to lift them and the control is much better.

I ‘m pretty much on my own,just need to be able to move them around in the room without scratching the floor.
