Ive seen these around the net for about 4-5 months now and i was really curious as to how they worked. By looking at them my first thought was the little "Vibration" unit. My first idea was these use a motor with an off set weight and it spins when a heavy bass note hits to create bass some how. I wasnt sure how it would work i figured you would have to hold it to feel anything. When i found them on newegg.com for $15. i decided to get 2 pair and rip a set apart leave one stock. They really dont sound bad for the money and come with some neat stuff. This is a nice gift for $15. i should of got them alot earlier maybe people know some one that would like em. When i tried em out they really do have an over whelming vibration and can be to much on the max setting. With em about 1/4 the way on the sound about right. I asked my nephew to try em out this is who i planed to give em to. His CD player has no EQ settings and lacks bass, he thought they were cool. So i wrapped the second pair up for him.
When i opened em up the first thing i looked for was the motor, i didnt see anything. I figured a bunch of mechanical parts would fall out or somthign so i was careful. All i see is a speaker. I took the 3 screws off the back of the driver and hidden under that was a second driver. The first driver is the vibration thing. At first i couldnt tell what it was or how it worked. After i poped the grill off all it is is a little sub woofer. I guess the "Vibration" unit is a power amp, and it powers the woofers seperate from the main full range drivers. This is a cool little setup a better company should take this design a step further and pack it all into a big cup like the DT770 man those would thump. The vibration box can be packed into a smaller package and the controls put on the cups. If cordless can do it they can do this.
For $15. they came in a reall neat round plastic box that looks like a glass display case or somthing, a pleather pouch, an extension cable, a 1/8" to 1/4" adaptor and a AA battery to get you going right out of the box. $15. i know my nephew will enjoy these. Now that i have a set open and a set still in the box he will have no idea....
