Hey guys

Has anyone ever seen one of these before ?? Thought it was pretty funny when i seen it. It's basically a subwoofer with a clamp that you put under your chair so you can feel the rumbles of the game. Think rumble pack, but strapped to your ass lol

Cool? Or absolute failure??

I've used it. Terrible product. Not recommended.

They've been around for awhile, and there are a couple of different manufacturers. Not just for games but movies/home theaters can use them as sort of a subwoofer alternative. The idea is that at low enough frequencies you feel the vibration rather than hear them, and this wouldn't shake the whole house like a real sub would. Some movie theaters use a similar but more sophisticated setup.

It's not that great. This is coming from a guy who installed a different version of buttkickers' in Macao Science Center and in Union City, TN's Discovery Park of America.
