It felt to me like the imax theatre at jordan's in massachusetts was using somethign like this. the seats would shake a lot, often when there was no associated bass sound, and the time was slightly off. i was with a bunch of people, none of whom are audiophiles. none of them noticed, but i didn't like it. -dave
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???
