Bass shakers?

God, a long time ago, maybe 96ish, I remember seeing the ads in car audio magazine. I don't think they produced a whole lot of sound, but what they did was attach to the frame of your car and resonate it with the music, so in essence your vehicle's chassis was the low frequency transducer. I don't think this was meant as a main source of music reproduction, but more for the whole body experience. Really cool idea in my opinion! If it doesn't mess up the sound, or adds to the sound slightly, these things would be a riot!

 
Girls absolutely love them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif We used to install them on metal plates. Then mount the metal plates to the bottom of the seats. They don't add to the sound. IT's more of a tactile feel thing. I used them in a demo car a while back at a store I was working with. The only subs the car had were a pair of jl 8's and a 50w x 2 amp . Then we put the bass shakers in under the seats. Gave them 25w each. People would sit in the car and listen. And then swear there were 10's or 12's in the trunk. Just because of the feel of the bass as they put it. They are pretty cool to play with. You can find them all over ebay pretty cheap. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Hey rangerman, Your senior year has been a while now hasn't it. Old timer! just kidding. I'm going to be a senior this fall. I wanted to have my car ready for school but now with the lack of job it looks like money is to tight, I could get most of the stuff I want but I don't want a half finished car. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif ow well
