Product Description
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.The ButtKicker is a small, linear motor, which reacts
Amazon.com Product Description
Ideal for movies, music, and gaming, the ButtKicker LFE "silent subwoofer" lets users experience realistic special effects and concert-quality music without waking the kids or disturbing the neighbors. Rather than emitting loud rumbling sounds during each explosion or heavy bass passage, the ButtKicker simulates the "feeling" of the effect through your couch, chairs, and other furnishings, letting you sense the low without the excessive volume. The device accurately mimics the sensation of many natural and manmade sounds, such as earthquakes, thunderstorms, rocket launches, waves, explosions, tornadoes, volcanoes, dinosaurs, sound effects, and all styles of music.
The Buttkicker installs easily, including under chair or couch mounting to create a tactile experience.

The ButtKicker LFE (low frequency effects) functions similar to a loudspeaker, but instead of moving a cone and transferring sound waves through the air, it uses a patented magnetic suspension system to attach to seats and floors, thus sending the low frequency sound directly into the listener's body. Listeners can decrease the sound pressure level from the subwoofer to where the kids upstairs can't hear it, yet still feel all the bass they want. And as compared to other shakers or tactile transducers that use voice coil technology, the ButtKicker is more powerful and more musical (linear), with a true low frequency response of 9 Hz and a range of 5 to 200 Hz.
To make it easy to connect your ButtKicker, the company included several other items to this LFE bundle, including a 2,100-watt amplifier that connects to your receiver's subwoofer out, a cable package, and a chair/couch mounting accessory kit. Simply place the mounting plate under one leg of a piece of furniture and attach the ButtKicker to the other side. The kit also includes rubber isolators that sit under the furniture's other legs. Listeners can even install the ButtKicker under the floor to enjoy a full-room tactile experience.
To top it off, the ButtKicker LFE is virtually indestructible and maintenance-free. It's so reliable, in fact, that dozens of theme park owners, specialty theaters, virtual reality operators, and arcade owners are using a commercial version of the ButtKicker to boost their bottom line. So if you're looking to delight and electrify your guests with an affordable and easy-to-use full-body experience, it's time to incorporate the ButtKicker into your home theater system.

Transformed my home theater experience!.......2007-06-01
Regardless of your nice high-end home theater speaker system this piece of equipment will give you an experience you won't get otherwise. The transducer isn't just a generic vibrator. This unit modulates the vibration to perfectly match what you hear. It isn't just a 'shaker' for your couch. Vibrations are transmitted with great accuracy as far as frequencies go. Watching Band of Brothers, Mission Impossible 3, Saving Private Ryan, and many more with this unit has been something out of this world. It makes you feel like you are there in the action. Explosions in movies, a tank just passing by, a door being slammed shut, you name it, and this thing makes you feel like you are there when it was being filmed. I highly recommend it! I'm a happy camper. The immersion factor goes up quite a few notches.
Added The Missing Link To My Home Theater.......2007-04-20
Where to begin? Should I start about how this thing litterally kicks butt, or the excellent build quality? The LFE Buttkicker kit is now easily my favorite piece of home theater equipment, as the title of the review says it added the missing link to it. Everythings packaged extremely well, with the amp receiving some extra padding due to its weight. Now for me this wasn't a plug-n play install, it took me over probably 5 or 6 hours over the course of 2 days to get the thing installed properly. Don't get me wrong, you can have the kit ready to go in 15-20 minutes, I did, but the effects were only ok. One always needs to tinker with new electronics before they find that sweat spot, and this is the case with the Buttkicker LFE kit. At first I mounted it under my couch using the mounting kit, this installation worked pretty well, except that one end was rattling off my hard basement floor. Therefore I put a rug under the couch, this reduced the rattling but it was still present. I then mounted it under a T junction under the couch, and the rattling was pretty much gone. I still had to tighten some bolts, and even remove a bracket underneath for the kicker to have enough room. The effects were now pretty good, although I thought they could be even better. I therefore made my own mounting plate out of wood, and attached it across these two metal supports on my theater couch (with bolts of course). After doing this I noticed a substantial change in vibration, it was over my entire body more so. I concluded that the best effect will be given when the unit is somehow attached directly to your couch, that way the couch and the Buttkicker almost as one piece.
The build quality is outstanding, probably 90% of the parts are made of metal, which is really nice considering a lot of things are being made out of plastic today.The Buttkicker LFE kit will give you a better movie experience, just don't expect to much, it doesn't toss you around. You may also want to check your receivers LFE settings, mine was set to "0", I changed this to -10db, the result was a much deeper response from the Buttkicker, very nice indeed.
Overall I'm extremely impressed, I plan on getting another LFE unit for my other couch.
All movies are not created equal.......2007-03-26
When a movie has a good surround track with adequate LFE you will feel the tremors. Most movies do not have adequate surround tracks, or worse, the levels vary from movie to movie. You will find yourself adjusting the gain up or down or the cutoff up or down to get more or less out of the shaker system. I have had some movies bottom out the shakers and with the same setting the next movie has little to no LFE unless the gain is cranked.
I wish there was an auto tune or some other setup signal (done automatically) on the intro of each movie such that your surround system and shakers could be set appropriately.
The effect you get is mild shaking. Some movies have it just for explosions, others for elephants or large animals walking. I have seen 2 movies where the shaking is continous when the scene is inside a space ship or helicoptor ... when you hear the engine noise, you can feel it as if you were inside.
Totally Awesome.......2007-03-09
This system brings out the feeling of a movie that the director originally intended, but SPL's alone cannot produce this feeling. I have a pretty nice system and I cannot believe the difference with the Buttkickers installed. I have revisited my collection of movies and even when you know there is a scene of excitment coming, you cannot prepare for the feeling or jolt that comes with the LFE kit. When properly setup, this is totally awesome. Setup is easy, time consuming, but easy. You don't want the amp set so high that movement is evident by voices...set it up so it is transparent. You want the Buttkicker to work in harmony with your subwoofer. Now, you will feel what you are hearing.
Just what I was missing.......2007-02-07
This is a great product. Build quality is excellent,Performs fantastic,Simple and easy to setup,Very realistic low frequecy effects. This is a great finishing touch for any home theater. If nothing else the fun factor with this kit is off the charts.

Very Dissappointed.......1999-12-20
This camera comes with no instructions or warranty information. The zoom feature doesn't exist as indicated in the technical data and editorial reviews. It doesn't even seem to be the camera advertised, but then who knows for sure when no written information is included.

Customer Reviews:
Great little music player.......2007-05-04
The Lexar JumpGear player is a great buy. I've had it for over a year now and it has been an excellent low-cost alternative to IPods and other super expensive MP3 players. It has good overall sound, great size, is tough against drops, and is extremely lightweight. It can play MP3 and WMA files and well as DRM WMA files after getting a free DRM utility from the Lexar website. Plus the fact that you can interchange USB flash drives into and out of it means there is no real size limit. I myself have two 1GB flash drives and one 512 MB flash drive that are filled with music that I interchange in the player. Also, this serves me the great dual purpose of being able to place all types of files on the drives for carrying between computers. Sure you have to use only Lexar USB drives in the player, but I got my 1GB Lexar JumpDrive Sport from eBay never-used for $4.00 including shipping (yes that says $4.00, not a typo), so I don't see that as a big deal. I would say the only real negative is the lack of a belt clip, which would have helped while jogging. All in all, great no-frills multi-purpose music player for a fraction of the cost of the big boys.
What!! This does not work right.......2005-11-05
I have many different flash/usb drives that I use for music, etc.
This chunk of junk only supports the Lexar flashdrives. Forget it.
I got mine from Fry's for $40 and back it goes tomorrow.

Great phone!.......2007-09-14
This is the best phone I have ever bought this is actually the 3rd time I have bought the same phone.
Excellent phone for little money - has lots of features.......2007-07-12
One of the cheapest phones I've seen with all the options.
I purchased extra phones so I had 4 phones total running off this system.
Phones lasted quite a long time in my house. We're pretty bad at tossing phones around to each other so we go through phones every couple of years normally.
I've replaced a lot of Panasonic phones in my time. These phones lasted 3-4 years and I'm actually still using them.
After all this time some of the buttons are starting to be testy. Having to push hard to get them to work. But again, many years of abuse. Battery life was and is still good. Batteries were replaced once.
highly recommend this product if you can still find it.
Bad experience.........2005-10-26
Though I charged the hand set for more than 15 hours, it did not work. So I have to send it back. Amazon did a excellent service.
remanufactured.......2005-08-15
I should have known I own a convenience store and my phone card vendor talked me into these remanufactured nokia phones sort of like tracfone. They sold really well but the problems customers had with the phones, like holding a charge or reception was beyond my control and the vendor would not accept the responsibility of rectifying the situation
Never had 1 single problem.......2005-06-03
I had this phone for nearly 3 years and just recently it got struck by lightning and doesn't work anymore. I went and bought 2 phones that same night at Walmart (they didnt have these vtechs), they were panasonic I believe ...and all 3 were GARBAGE. Made me miss my vtech even more.
I've dropped this phone plenty of times, had water splashed on it, and other hazards of the home and it still worked perfectly. Never a drop out, never static, never any buzzing when walking outside.
I'll be buying a brand new base and extensions soon.
