DO NOT USE CEMENT TO FILL YOUR SPEAKER STANDS, it is a very poor material for damping and vibration whcih is what you are looking for a stand to do. Use a mixture of sand, which is one of the best dampening materials and cheap and go to the local firing range and get used (fired) lead shot, rather than the little balls of lead shot since they fired lead will mix well with the sand and then fill you stands with that.
Cement to fill speaker stands?
Maybe a stupid question, but I wonder if cement (the powder used for construction) can be used instead of sand to fill speaker stands? It is somewhat difficult to find silica or play sand (no gun shops in my country so forget about lead shot) where I live, so I asking you what you think about cement for this purpose.
Thanks!
Thanks!
