Appreciate anyones input as to whether to use sand or shot in my amp stands. I have tube amps and I am currently using sand but i am rearranging my system and...
I have found, that if you use both, there can be a hugh difference. First fill with lead shot, then with fine silica sand. This will fill the "gaps" and create...
I am relocating my amps and have the opportunity to replace the sand in my stands with lead shot. Does anyone have any input as to which would sound better....
Is it heavy enough? Or do you have to wait until a cat has used it a couple of times... (SORRY, BAD JOKE, COULD NOT RESIST IT)... I don't have a cat, and...
Actually that's pretty funny....but I would not recommend it.... But all kidding aside....the dampening properties far exceed that of sand and/or lead shot. As...
I would say sand, because it is a more uniform mass and is less disturbed by energy. For example, if you take 2 tons of lead shot and fire a 75 mm shell on it;...
Maybe put two garbage bags into your stand first (as a liner) then poor in the sand. That would allow for easier removal of the sand. Regards, S ... ...

Eddie -- I am still using a 20 year old Yamaha 100 watt Amp. I need a new amp/preamp as well. But in rebuilding my system I thought it best to start with the...
At the price-point of $500 to $1000 can you really hear the difference between the "best" in that range, and "second best" in that range...? I am not sure that...
Hello Pete, There isn't a best choice. It's sort of like asking what is the best coffee out there for more than $5 a package. Some people like dark roasts...
I beg to disagree. At that price point, $500-$1000 there can be a very wide variation in how speakers sound. Whether one is better than another is perhaps...
