Goto Home Depot and ask for pipe insulation. You could put this either inside the pipe or outside (they sell many diameters). Another options; Get some packing (foam) peanuts and just jam them into the pipes. Spray foam is another idea but may be hard to fill the entire length.
Any Way To Damp Ringing Stands Without Adding Weight???
My 24"Pangea stands ring like a bell when I tap them..I don't want to add weight...I read about unscented kitty litter but with 1000% humidity where I live probably not a good idea since it absorbs moisture...How about spray foam like you use in construction to plug holes?Any other ideas?Thanks much..

I have the 4 post Pangea stands. I used the closed cell foam pipe insulation as referenced above. Seems to work well, as I don't feel any vibration with music playing. I decided to try this because I once used similar inserts designed to be inserted in steel golf shafts to cut down on vibration. Worked there too. |
@dill "Do not use kitty litter ever" Why? It absorbs moisture and will eventually clump up and harden inside your speaker stand, making it a challenge to empty if need be. A better fill is small pebbles, dried play sand or a mix of the two (both available from Home Depot or Lowes) don’t use sand from the beach. I also recommend Herbie's Gliders under the spikes. |
