some nice JLs are cheap and build a nice ported box for it

[DerekDRP]

I may get 2 jlb subs 1 8 inch woofer and 1 10 inch woofer and then insert them to my chair woot then i will feel the bass Oh yea.

Get the expensive Klipse (spelling is wrong I know). But for gaming I suggest headphones/mic, especially for fps games.

[Holodeck2]

If you want, get some bass shakers (Tactile transeducers) and mount them to your seat and turn them to ultra low frequencies and use that with a sub next to you so you can feel the ULB frequencies.
I got a pair of ones made by aura that I got cheap off of E-bay mounted to my swively office chair, one on the butt and one on the lower back with the my logitech sub pointed at me. UT2K4 is AWSOME! expecially the shock rifle, setting off the ball of plasma, that shockwave just hits you hard.

holodeck i play unreal 2k4 as well I have the klipsch ( headseed) your only off by a letter not bad though ) I was thinking thins.

1>Sound blaster pro audiitgy 2.
1>rockfordfosgate s series 600 watt amp ) ( same as in my car )
1>450 watt power inverter
1>custemade back brace for the chair add the subs and so on ( use a surround sound type system as well )

For $400, I will come round to yours with a can of hairspray and will kick you in the back as many times as you like.

For $400 you can get a decent powered subwoofer with a built-in variable low-pass crossover. Bass shakers are nice for that "sensaround" appeal but nothing truly replaces real bass frequencies to rattle the gut.

Check out Hsu Research <http://www.hsuresearch.com/> for real subwoofer technology without the marketing nonsense, at a reasonable price. Adire Audio <http://www.adireaudio.com/> has the Rava sub at $399 with the wonderful Shiva driver. Or try and make your own sub and save some $. My web site at lungster.com has info on DIY audio. Good luck.

I'm still around; stop in occasionally to check out what's new (usually when I get in that upgrade mood; actually it's a disease - "upgradeitis"). But I finally tossed in the towel this weekend. My need for speed surpassd my devotion to the BP6; and I got this dual P3 for free Actually I tried installing SuSE on it and it was all smooth sailing until the very end when the video vanished. And here I was thinking that my debug days on the BP6 was over !

Over ? Did you say Over ? ....
