rigid stands are the way to go. Most are made of steel. AS such the hollow legs can vibrate so a sand filled mount helps dampen the stand.
Also filling the stand helps in lowering the center of gravity, too
Follow Ups:
If the purpose of sand is to turn vibration to heat through friction, then it needs to be able to... vibrate and thus must not to packed down.
If you make a sand box (and I have had them) then the mass of the speaker compresses the sand which actually (over time) become more rigid and less able to do what it was originally intended to do.
You are better putting a speaker stand into the tray and then filling the tray with sand so that the sand is free to vibrate and damp the stand at the same time.
I am ready with my tin hat and anti-depressants for adverse commentary... ;-)
No not really, as most advocates seem to favor your approach.
