| Buttkicker BK-LFE Seat Shaker Tactile Transducer
|
|
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 and sound effects.
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. The ButtKicker is used in: Theme park attractions; Specialty theaters; Simulators; Virtual reality machines; Arcade and amusement rides/games; and Custom Home theaters.
The Buttkicker LFE products are designed specifically for low frequency effects. The Buttkicker Concert products are designed specifically for use with music and do not have the same punch on the low end we want in theater and amusement applications.

| SIT IBEAM VT300 Bass Seat Shaking Transducer
|
|
Well, the competition is heating up. Sonic Immersion Technology has released a stellar product in the IBEAM VT300 (formerly model 1442). We love to test these kinds of products when they come out and well we loved it. It is a relatively small but very powerful tactile transducer. The IBEAM VT300 is more accurate than any other transducer we have ever tested and packs more punch at the same settings. The IBEAM transducer packs more than enough force to vibrate a chair, couch or even a platform.

| Vibration Isolators VI-43 with Threaded Stud - Sold Individually
|
|
The VI-43 rubber vibration isolators are designed to support couches, chairs, platforms etc. for the purpose of maximizing the vibration effect produced by the Buttkicker Transducers. The VI-43 vibration isolators will allow the chair, couch platform to vibrate more freely and reduce the the amount of vibration energy transferred to the floor. These vibration isolators are particularly nice because the metal plate is at the top surface which allows the isolator to be attached without compressing the rubber. Additional the VI-43 isolator is a little taller which will lift the chair out of thick plush carpet. The VI-43 rubber isolators are supplied with a threaded stud and locking nut.
The goal of using an isolator like this is to get the base of the chair off the floor and to provide a new foot that has the ability to let the chair float more easily. The RI-K28 isolators do a good job of this on the thinner more commercial style carpets but if you have a thicker more plush carpet the VI-43 isolator will provide better results.
VI-43 Rubber Vibration Isolator Specifications:
· Rubber Isolator designed for individual seating, chairs and sofas
· Metal plate and Threaded Stud at top surface
- Advantage: The rubber won't compress when attaching to chair
- Advantage: More Rubber - More Action
· Neoprene Rubber can be used indoors or Outdoors
· Durometer Hardness 50A (Medium Hard by Classification not by feel)
· Load Capacity Per Each - 80lb (As Specified by MFG)
· 5/16-18 Threaded Stud with Locking Nut
· Threaded Stud Length - 0.600"
· Height: 1” Not Including Stud
· Width: 1.6”

| Buttkicker RDB Series - Large Vibration Isolators
|
|
Buttkicker RDB series rubber vibration isolators are designed to support the heavy weight of platforms for the purpose of maximizing the vibration effect produced by the Buttkicker Transducers. The RDB series vibration isolators will allow the platform to vibrate more freely and reduce the the amount of vibration energy transferred to the sub floor.
Sizing – Take the total weight of applied to isolators (Platform, Chairs, People etc.) and divide that by the # if isolators used.
Example: 1000lb x 5 = 200 Use RDB-220
How many Isolators do I need - There isn’t a golden rule. The number of isolators needed depends on the construction of your platform. Basically, you only need as many isolators as necessary to prevent the platform from sagging. Typically 1 per corner or 1 or 2 in the center.
