Its very easy to use too much with the tactile devices. Used correctly , it can be effective on theatre . Its a balance between xover and output and positioning under the listening chair . You must also be careful how you isolate the rest of the surfaces touching the floor. That said , its fun when implemented correctly.
Silent Subwoofers ie: Buttkicker -your thoughts?
I am a huge movie fan, and have finally completed my theatre room. I have one final question, does anyone out there have any experience with the 'silent subwoofers' such as the Buttkicker made by Berkline. They are generally used to mount to a chair or couch and shake without making any noise. Their purpose is to make your couch feel like it is rumbling when a volcano erupts or when a building blows up.
Are these things for real or are they cheap gimicks that are useless???
