At the end of April, I am going to be moving from NJ to Florida. I still have al; of the original boxes for my Arcam AVR 600,KEF Q900's and KEF Q600. I do not have the packing materials. Any idea how I can wrap these so they are not damaged by the movers?

If you didn't keep the packing, what was the point of keeping the boxes? Bubble wrap works but it needs to be packed well enough that it can't move but you don't need to make the box bulge.

Some off your components can be packed inside dresser drawers (or other large funiture) with clothing for cushion. Clothes can be packed in garbage bags. Electronics are more important.

Flat panel TV's can be wrapped in a comforter or blankets than duct taped up tight. Again, what's more important, bedding or your TV?

take the grills off. wrap the speaker in a blanket 1 turn. then get a sturdy piece of cardboard to cover the drivers, cut it the size of the grill. then finish wrapping with the rest of the blanket. then stuff than in the original box.if there is room left, pack with pieces of cardboard.

the tv's. i would make a crate for em. but thats just me.
