    filling FS-700 stands

    Hi guys,

    Can you please recommend to me what I should fill my stands with?

    Manual recommends white sand, which i assume is different from normal sand?

    Also, should i sit them on the spikes or the rubber pads provided (surface is polished concrete).

    Cheers,

    Julie
    My setup so far: Pioneer PDP-506HD, Sony DST-HD500, Bryston SP2, Bryston 6B SST, Bryston 4B SST, Pioneer DV-989AViS, CD Player TBC, Belkin PF60, B&W 804s, HTM3S, B&W 705s, B&W ASW750, Logitech Harmony 880

    You can use play sand like they use for sand boxes, and use the rubber feet that also come with your B&W speakers.

      Speaker Stands - What material should I use to fill?
      by texasbwfan
      All,

      I'm considering the purchase of some material to fill my 805s speaker stands with. Does anyone have an opinion (stupid question) on what material would be best? Lead pellet or Sand? Or, is filling the speaker stands even necessary? Thank you all in advance,

      B&W FS-700/CM Floor Stands and sand
      by nirvana_1911
      Just wanted to ask if anyone who owns these actually put sand in them or leave them hollow.

      I got a pair and have not put sand inside and I'm happy with that at the moment.
