Is anyone using sand boxes under their speakers ?


That is, with good results ? I just purchased a new couch that is 4" taller than my old couch was. I'm now 4" higher than the ideal on axis seating location. I've read Brightstar Audio's articles about their simple 2" tall boxes filled with sand, with a plinth riding on top, that is used under speakers to kill vibrations.
Being skeptical of manufacturer's claims, I find myself wondering if anyone here has personal experience with this ? If it works well, it would cure most of my new seating axis issues.

I raised my Hales Rev 3s using concrete pavers (12" x 12") which I painted black. Under each are four hockey pucks. The Hales with spikes sit on top. Not only did i raise them up where I wanted, the bass response tightened up as well. And the cost was well... cheap.
