I have used a combination of lead shot and sand in most of my speaker stands. The lead is great for damping, and the sand fills in the spaces around the shot. Just be sure the sand you use is free of salt and thoroughly dry (I bake the sand in a 350-degree oven for about 2 hours to be sure it is dry.)
Suggestions for filling speakers stands?
I am using some very good bookshelf speakers, and want to get the best sound out of em w/stands....and I was
wondering if anyone had some advice on what is the best way
to fill speaker stands for sonic conciderations?
I hear differing theories and views on this subject and am not certain on which way to go...Leadshot?...Sand?...combinations w/resin?..etc?...
....I've heard some say non vibrating or shifting fill is best for heat dissipation effects and so forth. But have also heard that solid resin filled stands are the way to go from others. Any input/advice?
