Focal 1028BE - protecting speakers for a move

Hi all,

Sorry if this has been asked/answered before, but I couldn't find a thread on this.  I'm moving to a new house, which is about a 10 minute drive away and need to pack up my Focal 1028BEs.  I don't have the original boxes or styrofoam.  Does anyone have advice on protecting the speakers for transport, especially the beryllium tweeters?  I'm planning on using a small UHaul truck.

Thanks!

Use a couple of those really cheap, soft fuzzy blankets or at least a flannel sheet first, then wrap in a moving blanket or two. And then lay the on your mattress with something between them and some boxes on either side.

All the best.

Thank you all!  I actually like the mattress idea as I have a tempurpedic.  The speakers should be well cushioned.

Just make sure the speakers won't have a chance to bounce around using the mattress.
