ok so I impulse bought some aura bass shaker pro's (guy had 4 for 110 bucks shipped, brand new I couldn't resist)

anyhoo, I'm not really sure on the proper application if these things, so how do I mount em just screw en to the bare steel floor under the front seats or do I mount em to the seat frame somehow

and can I run em off a full range signal, like say the rear spkr outputs of my head unit (since I don't have rear spkrs) or does it have to be a lopassed signal

any input on the proper use of these things would be great


figure I'm gonna use 2 in the car and 2 in the truck

WAY more effective if mounted to the seat itself.

Try attaching a wood or metal plate to the seat frame and attach the shaker to it.

^^^ Agreed !
BTW..,
Avoid high levels with a full bladder ! ;)

Nice. Lemme know how you like those... I've never seena pair yet but would love to feel the effects they cause and get a set for myself...

And pics.... Show us pics of how youn install them when you're done!

yeah, I havn't seen a pair up close yet either ........I paid him yeaterday he's supposed to send em out by friday

I'll take some pics ....install won't happen till spring as it's too damn cold out now and I got no garage

but yeah they've always piqued my intrest and the price was too good to turn down

About 10 years ago I had about 10 of them that I bought from princess auto for about $12.00 each. I had them all hooked up to a home theatre amp, and I mounted them on my walls. Shook the crap out of my room. Until my amp started making a 'kicker smell' and stopped working. All of these years later, I realize it might have something to do with the .5 ohm load I was trying to push on the amp...lol. But in a vehicle mounted on a seat, they should be killer. They don't actually sound loud, but they sure feel loud.

I just put a pair in my truck a few months ago. Screwed them each to a piece of 1/2" MDF which then screwed to the front and rear edges of my seat frame. Cross them over as you would a subwoofer.

Damn... I've been looking for these for a long time..

I would like to use them in the WRX to save the weight..

Drew still have some?

everytime i've used the alpine shakers they've worked great.Its kinda a wierd sensation when used without subs in the car(bass without bass).Theres no actual output from these lil motors, I recomend using a small sub with these for some acoustic reinforcement. Personaly id like to screw a set to a helmet in an SPL car and "go fer a rip"

thanks for the tips , I'm deff using subs( I got 2 8's ported in the truck, car is undecided as of yet, but leaning towards IB 15's) I plan to use these to "enhance" the sub bass
