Speaker Stands Filled With Kitty Litter? TRUE???

I am a sand/lead shot fill type of guy myself. However, it you decide to use clay, you might want to visit your local automotive store (AutoZone et al) and check out “Dri-Zit” or “HiDri” floor absorbent products. I have found that Kitty litter and others contain a litany of non-clay materials. The floor absorbents are Georgia’s Fuller’s Earth, which I believe is clay. Oh yeah, what ever you have left over after filling the speaker stands will come in handy to clean up those nasty oil spots after an oil change.

Try lead balls or marbles, but if you don't have the balls, or lost your marbles like i have, kitty litter should work fine!

I filled my new TV stand and Stereo rack with sand and sealed around the various openings with tub caulk. (DAP Titanium silicon has NO SMELL!!!)
The play sand from Menards was wet. I dried it out on my stove.

Albert, you must be talking about medical silica, that's not available to the general public without a perscription and according to the newspapers/TV stations(i trust them), they are clamping down on the states where it is legal to sell. If you have any extra, would you consider selling a nickel bag? It's been a while(what time is it?). Last time i scored some it was blackmarket, but we still had a blast in the sand. Thanks for listening. Regards,.........uh...........oh yeah, Alan

Yep, for the last three years I have been using clay-based kitty litter (pre-kitty) in my Tyler Acoustics stands for the Linbrook Monitors. Works well. Bonus: 6 months' back up for my three cats in the event of Armegeddon.
