Anyone know if there any good or not? Heres their web page: http://www.aurasound.com/ What I have is the AST-2B-4. Says their retaled at $200 each! |

Anyways they are designed to be mounted to couches, seat backs, floors etc., and they shake whatever they are attached to and give the impression of low bass. They are not made for music, they are too slow to give a realistic impression of the bass. They are made for games and movies. I do use a ButtKicker tactile transducer on my drum stool when I am on tour and it helps alot to get a feel of the kick drum and bass guitar but for critical music listening they fall short. I also have the Aura AMP 75 that came with some of the complete shaker kits. The thing has powered a subwoofer for years in my house and I never had one problem with it and it runs ice cold. |
