Recently I installed Herbies fat dots on the speaker stands The bass improved immediately but is too heavy. Should i use softer dots or to remove sand from the columns since I filled them to the top.
Also try: Moving your speakers more out in the room..That should give you more midrange openness and cut back on the Bass energy......Move them a few inches at a time until satisfied.....I found my Kharmas work best about 5' out into the room.....
If you have the time and patience,try changing the amount of sand filled in the stands..I have found ( using Skylan Speaker stands ) that the amount of fill required for best sonics in fillable stands has a lot to do with Speaker cabinet construction..Thin wall speaker cabinets react much differently than thick wall speaker cabinets..Sonics can change considerably ( good and bad ) from the amount of fill in Stands.....I ended up filling only 1/3 of stands.....
Kiza : Glad things worked out..Funny how things can change with more or less sand.....The transition between Stand and Speakers is also a crapshoot..Herbies' stuff is great..Many like Bluetak.......Just keep trying different things an eventually you will find the right cure..Every situation is a little different..
