I was told to put Kitty Litter in my new speaker stands. Was he joking?


I guess i realize he was NOT joking, but it seems strange. I've always heard sand was best. He told me to get unscented kitty litter and fill em all the way up. The stands are 29 inches with 4 columns (2x2). Monitors are 23 pounds each.

Anyone done this with a positive result?

@funkbass, save Dr. E for da cat. ;)

As for different brands, here's a 'consumer research' project....👍😊 

You've got a ready 'recycling' for the brands that don't do the deed. ;)

Win~win....*G*

I am still waiting for the stands to arrive. But it seems logical that since enough of you have used KL successfully and it was recommended by the speaker designer - ill use it also. Yes it absorbs humidity, but thats its function, and wont matter unless i try to remove it ( cant imagine why i would do that). I bought my old stands used, over 20 yrs ago and have no idea what the original owner put in them. I should check.
I have just gone through this procedure and purchased 40kg of pool filter sand from the local pool supply shop.
Takes a while to fill mind.
