sand versus shot in speaker stands


recently purchased monitors and stand for bedroom and do not know if i should fill stand or not. if the stands should be filled what material should be used. i always read about stands being sand or shot ready, but i must admit i do not know what is meant by shot and where one goes to by shot.

thanks in advance for the help

Theo,

You are correct. There is a compnay called Atacama that sells a product called ATABITES.

"High density filler designed for mass loading of speaker stands. Delta shaped chips which interlock together creating minimum air gaps."
