Atacama Filler for Speaker Stands
$130AUD inc. GST
Speaker stand mass is critical to the performance of your speakers. Atabites add mass to your speaker stand in a linear and constant way. Sand particles can vary in size, and lead shot is toxic. Atabites are the perfect solution!
In order to get the best possible sound from your speaker stands, it is recommended that the main columns are filled with a high density inert filler. This will reduce ringing and give a conically dead platform from which to position bookshelf style speakers.
