How do you store 12" speakers?

[woody]

Esteemed dudes and dudettes,
I've got a couple of 12" speakers kicking around that need some place to be.
I have an Grossman iso-box, where I sometimes swap speakers, and I have some speakers that are not in cabs right now, but are just not for sale.
How do you store and organize speakers?
Are there sources for empty storage boxes?

Thanks in advance!

Hi.

13x13x13" cardboard boxes, and 12x12" wood sheets, that's 2 speakers per box.

Walmart links to demonstrate what you need;
13x13x13 boxes
12x12 wood sheets

If you're in the US, the large USPS flat rate boxes work pretty well. And they're free.

In the cabinet with the rest of them

My room is pretty much 4x4 meters, (that is, like, 13x13 Italian spaghetti for you metric-heretics).
I count 9 cabs or combos, including one 1x18, one 4x12 and one 2x12.
The iso-cab is in the basement, some additional cabs are in the attic...

Yep, happy drummer.
JT's is the '90s pissy attitude, depressed and not taking his meds version.

Just thinking out loud because I had to store a couple for a few months, but if you put one speaker on the ground facing up, and another on top of it facing down, you can zip tie them together at the screw holes. This should keep the speaker cones safe, and you can store the speakers on a shelf, in a box, or somewhere else safe.

As mentioned, the free usps boxes are perfect. I have like 4 stacked up in my closet.

that’s a great idea!

 

[Riffraff]

Yes, great idea. I have some in empty WGS & Weber boxes but have a few in shitty cardboard boxes that need to be replaced.

I never throw away a gear box, so I just put replaced speakers back in the Celestion box of the speaker that’s replacing it. An area of my closet is just a graveyard of replaced speakers.
