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?

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.

Do not build your house on sand!

My Totem Arros have mass loading chambers.  I used rice.  Figured that in the event of Zombie Apocalypse I could break open the stash.

The retro looking stands that I use for my JBL 4319s use some kind of injectable sound deadening foam. When I first got them, I tried rapping on different spots/locations and got different, thought deadened, responses. Seems to work well enough.

All the best,

How about Granny's cremation remains?
I told my wife to do anything she wanted with my ashes, just not in the kitty litter.
