Vibration Bass

Thread Starter 

I use DJ1 Ultrasone headphones (HFI-580) with a DSS Dolby Digital 7.1 amp. I really like the surround sound, but I want more bass. I really like quality so I don't want to kill the frequency balance.

So I've decided to get some sort of subwoofer. One that Is in a chair or something. I don't want it to produce sound, ONLY want it to produce vibration from bass notes. Is there anything that exists that could do this? Because I want to watch anime and movies without waking anyone up, but I also want the vibrations from bass, just not the sound. Any ideas?

Bass is sound, not vibration.  Viscal impact only happens when the spl of that bass is high, which means the actual volume would have to be high.  You're after just a vibrator, and not a subwoofer.

Buy a pair of Skullcandy Skullcrushers, use a splitter to drive them along with your Ultrasone, and sit on them biggrin.gif

fret not.  Head Fi'ers might not know what you're after but a sim racer does!
