@phusis , I would feel free in saying the vast majority of us do not have the room for subwoofer horns. In my case it would not work anyway. I have to form a line source with them which means 4 or more drivers in most situations. If you put the subs in corners and in a wall floor intersection you do increase their efficiency requiring about 1/4th the power to get the same volume. In this case as a line source 4 12" drivers can do a lot of damage in your typical room. My own system will shortly have 8 12" drivers in 4 sealed cylindrical balanced force enclosures.
Bass sensation like a loud car system in home?
I know this is a bit of a silly question but bear with me here:
What options are there for getting that feeling of a powerful subwoofer vibrating through your body in your home? I know the easiest option would be to just put a capable subwoofer next to your seating and let it hit as hard as it can. I'm also not trying to make all of my neighbors hate me so I'm looking for some creative solutions to pulling it off at reasonable residential volumes.
I'm thinking that some combination of tactile transducers in the couch and a subwoofer next to or also installed inside of the couch would get pretty close. Being right under your body I wonder what kind of decibels would actually be required to get a bass massage going. Without the sensation of the high volume bass it also might just seem silly and be a complete waste of time aside from watching movies.
Thoughts?
