Lead shot is just fine (the real tiny stuff from the gun store)- much better/heavier than sand in my experience. I have filled a Target stand with it, along with a pair of speaker stands- I did not have any 'dust' when I was filling mine- wore gloves while doing so; then sealed the holes with black electrical and/or duct tape- don't see how this would be a problem, as it is all inside the stand(s)...
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
