 Only a piece of junk September 3, 2007
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this product with great expectations and enthusiasm. I brought it home, hooked it up, and only 30 minutes later , yes, only 30 minutes later I heard two 'clicks' coming from the amp and everthing stopped. I couldn't believe my eyes that it broke down on the very first day and the very first moments that it operated. I tried to contact the support team of the producer and so far I have not been able to get any positive support. They only keep asking useless questions and that's it. I wanted to return the product and no answer at all. I have lost 100 dollars with this junk so anybody better keep your wallets away from these guys.

I've had my buttkicker for about 5 months now. There is 1 big problem with it. There is a brand new theater just built in the town next to mine, and I hate going because the theater does not have a buttkicker on the chairs.
This thing is just amazing. I was looking at it for over a year contemplating about buying it. I finally gave in and it's great. I hooked it up to my Futon in my college apartment, and the result from everyone that's sat on it has been the same; they were in awe. The trick is to turn the sound up on the device so it's enough of an input for the buttkicker to work with.
The CONS!! Why 4 stars? Two big reasons.
First, the fan! It's loud and annoying, but if you put the buttkicker in the right place you can hear it, but only slightly.
Two, I had a little problem with the power cord. When I first got the buttkicker the power cable didn't want to sit right. Haven't had problems with it in a couple months though. Fixed itself I suppose.
When I get older I plan on getting the bigger one for my home theater system. There is no words for how great this device is.
Another story if you want more to go with, I took this to my friend's house where he has a 52" HDTV with a nice 6.1 surround sound system. We hooked it up to his stereo and started playing Guitar Hero II. My friends didn't believe it was so good. In fact, after just 1 song, my friend went to Amazon on made the purchase. Be prepared to get involved in games.
 Buttkicker + Forza 2 + Playseat Evolution = <3 July 18, 2007

I just received my Buttkicker Gamer today and I must say it adds a lot of immersion to Forza 2 and Dirt, but especially Forza 2. If you're building a racing cockpit of your own I consider the Buttkicker a must have item.
A rumble-pack for your chair! July 2, 2007

I was a bit skeptical about this product even after reading the numerous positive reviews, but after a few hours of gameplay, I am a very happy customer. I really didn't understand how this product relayed the vibration, but after attaching it securely to an underside bar on my Playseat, it works perfectly by transferring vibrations throughout the entire seat. I am now encompassed by low-end rumble every time a certain amount of bass is detected by the unit. Probably the best effect so far is the awesome feel of firing a shotgun in a game... BOOM! The only drawback to the system is the amplifier/control unit itself, which is much larger than I expected. Don't let the out-of-scale pictures fool you, it's roughly the size of an Xbox.
Did not work right out of the box June 12, 2007

I ordered the "Gamer to use as a sub for my drum monitor. When it arrived I opened the box and hooked it up and it was a dud. The lights didn't even come on.Nada, nothing !!! I have emailed the manufacturer since that is who warrants the product. I will see how good their customer service is I guess.I will post the results of how they handle this problem.
