Where can one purchase lead shot for speakers?

When I had my VR4jrs a couple years ago, I bought my lead shot at Walmart in the sporting goods department. They had 20 lb. bags. You can get one of those cheap white respirator masks at the hardware store. Just pour it in slow (so it doesn't stir up dust) and you'll be just fine. It won't kill you, and it works great. I still use it in my speaker stands.

Just don't eat it for breakfast every day. Sheesh, let's get real. Anything might kill you if you ingest enough of it. Loading up your speakers or stands with it will not. Putting insulation in your attic isn't supposed to be good for you either but I've never heard of anyone dying from it. By the way, when I sold my VR4jrs, I told the guy I put lead shot in them and that I was going to remove it before I shipped them. I wasn't worried in the least that the guy would "freak out" over it.

I agree 100% that lead is not a safe material. Radiation isn't either, but millions of people get X-rays every day. I'm just trying to point out that in such a small dose, the lead will do nothing to harm you by using it in your speakers or stands. On the other hand if lead were outlawed and not made available anymore, then we'd be forced to find a substitute. As it stands now, lead shot can either sit in Wal Mart, or it can sit in my speaker stands. It's an excellent dampening material. In closing, I never said there weren't lots of people who wouldn't buy my speakers because they were lead filled. I just made it known that I didn't have any problem selling them because of it.
