Hi PabloP,
all I can say is, fill your stand with sand, then dump em and fill with rice (if you have the wherewithall for that--time, money, patience, a good vaccum), oh, and of course listen in between, and I think you'll find a difference in the sound your speakers present you, or, if you have a bug problem, try your kitty litter after the sand. I tried those and more, and each makes a unique sound. I'm still finding I like poly pellets best, which is sort of like the fancy stands Jeff Day reviewed on Positive Feedback from Acoustic Revive for $10k. They also add touralane (SP) or some such material.
The beauty of the Skylans is you can adjust the sound to your specific speaker and room. The science of it I'm not interested in. Just the end result.
