what if you put too much lead shot in your speaker


if you put too much shot in your speakers will it make them sound bad or just make the bass sound better?

Its all the same ...Compensation for design problems.. It still kills the music..There are better remidies.. if indeed they are needed..Ask Lrsky he use to work with the compensation chamber guy..he now knows the way out of the dead zone. Tom
mbolddal, my ProAc`s uses dry silver sand instead of lead shot. But I think it does the same thing. Here is what proAc says, "a small amount of sand will give the bass more warmth, adding more sand to the cavity will give a dryer tighter quality, most people will find that a half to two thirds full is optimum in most models".
If you still have your owners manual check it out for your speakers.
Hope this helps,Jim
I agree with "Theaudiotweak." mbolddal, why do you think you need any in your speakers. What are you trying to compensate for?
Theaudiotweak,I don`t use it in my ProAcs, but is there a difference in dry silver sand and lead shot to the effect it has on the bass?I know lead will deaden sound.
