what if you put too much lead shot in your speaker

if you put too much shot in your speakers will it make them sound bad or just make the bass sound better?

One of the obvious benefits of this is lower shipping cost and less chance of shipping damage. I remember an article in TAS many years ago. They were interviewing James C about either Alien or Terminator. The interviewer was going on and on about how James used the wrong film stock, film speed, and aspect ratio. James finally told they guy that he was the director, he made the decisions to obtain a certain feel to the film, and if he didn't like it he could go piss up a rope (not in those exact words). I lost all respect for TAS that day, and have not purchased an issue since.
