    Any good cheap places online to get the shot or should I just get it from a local sports store?

    Whether you can find it cheap online or not, shipping would grab you by the 'nads! :razz:

    Best to just pick it up locally.

    Yes, and I find that used kitty litter gives most speakers a more coherent soundstage than fresh.

    Why not just fill them with molten iron like a real man?

    That would work, but lead shot is still the best. Besides, shipping that from the UK is going to be very expensive.

    I'll second the lead shot - no mess, extremely effective, very dense. i.e. perfect for stands.
