  • More Info


    The ButtKicker LFE (Low Frequency Effects) is a small, linear motor that reacts to an audio signal sent by the amplifier. It is similar to a loudspeaker, but instead of moving a cone and transferring sound waves through the air, it attaches to seats and floors and sends low frequency sound directly into the listener's body. The ButtKicker LFE utilizes a patented magnetic suspension and can be used on couches, theater seating, platforms, and any type of structure. The ButtKicker accurately reproduces 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.

    With the included Buttkicker Furniture Mount, place the mounting plate underneath one leg of your furniture and attach the ButtKicker to the other side. Rubber isolators are included for placing under the furniture's other legs. The included amplifier is able to power one or two ButtKicker units (when wired in parallel). Does your system have wireless capabilities? The ButtKicker Wireless Package (sold separately) contains everything you'll need to enjoy your ButtKicker without running any additional wires to your furniture.

    GERARD -- eindhoven, XX   3/10/2011
    For an experienced audio/video person like me the installation is a piece of cake. The instructions are well thought of e.g. very clear. The product is doing what it is supposed to do and gives an extra dimension to my Home Cinema and race simulator.Unfortunately I had to wait for more then 6 months, but I received the kit for free (also because it was a 110 Volt instead of 220 volt version). But with this gesture my patience was rewarded.

    I thought it would be able to move my entire platform with three theater chairs and one rocking chair. I will have to purchase the smaller individual units to get the same affect across all of the chairs.
    photographer -- darlington, Harford County, Maryland   7/4/2010
    I love this unit in my custom handicap Van, the bass output shakes the entire handicap Van. I hope you make this unit available with a 7.2 package. I would love to have this two of these units attached to my hospital bed in my home to make my HDTV experience better. We are a little ahead of the curve, as only 3 companies have only made one 7.2 receiver each and as more units hit the market the costs will come down a little.
    SUSAN -- winter haven, FL   9/28/2005
    Very Happy with the buttkicker
    HENRY -- turnersville, NJ   7/8/2005
    Great feeling from the product, interested in buying another. Should sell 2 units in a package for sectional sofa or movie seats.
    WERTHER -- san juan del rio, XX   4/7/2005

    JAN VAN -- gavere, XX   2/20/2005
    Very satisfied customer. Shipping to Europe was very smooth and fast.
    JOHN -- stony creek, ON   12/28/2004
    This is a nice add-on to a theater system and gives a unique experience. It is a very good way to keep your aging parents awake when you invite them over to watch a movie.
    Roland -- wenatchee, WA   11/18/2004
    WOW! Tremendous sounds 5 to 200 Hz (your specs). Sure you didnt mean 5 to 2000 Hz or 5 to 2K Hz?
