Buttkicker LFE Kit

 

What is the Buttkicker?

The quick start guide was clear and had a good number of pictures to help clarify the install process. I did find it a bit confusing to find the detailed installation instructions, as a number of different user manuals were included. Once it was all...

This thing would be great if it felt more natural. But on many sounds, like the reviewer said, there is a slight delay which gets really annoying. Reminds me of when the audiotrack in a movie is slightly out of sync - drives me nuts.

Performs as advertised

I bought this and wireless receivers. I rate this 4 because it performs as advertised. As for value add, I leave mine unplugged most of the time - for me the novelty wears out pretty quickly. What I don't like: I have a delay about 0.5 seconds for...

Product Specifications

The only tactile transducer designed specifically to take advantage of the .1 and LFE channels, the ButtKicker LFE features extended low frequency response for powerful bass response and special effects. The ButtKicker LFE (low frequency effects) utilizes a patented magnetic suspension which is different from any other speaker or shaker and can be used couches, theater seating, platforms, and any type of structure. The ButtKicker accurately reproduce the "feeling" range of many natural and man-made sounds, such as earthquakes, thunderstorms, rocket launches, waves, explosions, tornadoes, volcanoes, dinosaurs, sound effects and all styles of music. Different from other shakers or tactile transducers that use voice coil technology, the ButtKicker is much more powerful, more musical (linear) and offer true infrasonic or low frequency response with their resonant frequency of 9 Hz and range of 5 - 200 Hz. One ButtKicker LFE will easily replace 2 - 4 or more of the other types of shakers previously available, and perhaps more importantly; it is virtually indestructible and maintenance free. The ButtKicker is used in: Theme park attractions; Specialty theaters; Simulators; Virtual reality machines; Arcade and amusement rides/games; and Custom Home theaters. If you are looking to delight and electrify yourself and others with an affordable and easy to use solution, now is the time to incorporate the ButtKicker into your design.
