Bass sensation like a loud car system in home?

I know this is a bit of a silly question but bear with me here:

What options are there for getting that feeling of a powerful subwoofer vibrating through your body in your home?  I know the easiest option would be to just put a capable subwoofer next to your seating and let it hit as hard as it can.  I'm also not trying to make all of my neighbors hate me so I'm looking for some creative solutions to pulling it off at reasonable residential volumes.

I'm thinking that some combination of tactile transducers in the couch and a subwoofer next to or also installed inside of the couch would get pretty close.  Being right under your body I wonder what kind of decibels would actually be required to get a bass massage going.  Without the sensation of the high volume bass it also might just seem silly and be a complete waste of time aside from watching movies.

Thoughts?

Auto bass in the home.....🤪

What's not to like?!
Crack that sheetrock, all the seams rippling like the pond subjected to a stream of rocks.....Big Rocks (not yours, sorry....*L*)
Renovating in mind?  Get that old lath cleared of horsehair plaster bits.....
(Your woofs will get dusty....wear a mask, which ought to be part of your 'lifestyle' anyway....unless you're interested in creating a vacancy by one means or another....)

"Let's evolve CV-19, v.G!"

no

The potential nice effect of major home subs that mimic car rattling ones' is that your bowels Will Move....so be aware....*LOL*

I'll stand by my initial post, rude as it may be considered.
I've heard wayyy too many auto 'bassers' loosening the bolts in their cars with just floppy butt bass...therefore, the 'bowels' inference....🤨

An approach could be multiple large drivers for the audio/tactile point, transferring to tactile drivers in the seating. (Drivers first, bolt seating Down second....)

Complex?  Perhaps....how far you want to go with your concept and desire?  Likely the answer could get complex and expensive depending on the results desired....

I like big bass too....relative to the genre', of course....;)

Good luck, J
