The company went bankrupt a while back. --KC
Sony actually makes something similar now. It's a soft chair now though but still has the big subwoofer strapped to your backside, it also has a pair of near field speakers hanging off the armrests. Price-wise, things have gone up a bit...it's now ~$1200Cdn or ~$800 USD But hey,...it's Sony. :0) Mike "Kasey Chang (use EXCITE.COM instead!)" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:vor_6.188$[email hidden]...

Sounds like the "Thunderchair", or something like that. I thought that was a waste of good money, too.

You could do what a buddy of mine did, which is to build your own. One of the consoles (PS I think) used to have something called a "rumblepack" or something like that. It was a little vest that you wore which had a transducer mounted in the back. The transducer fed off the audio signal, and coupled with a crossover circuit, would vibrate in response to low frequency audio. Anyway, my friend was able to find some dude selling these rumblepacks for $5 apiece on EBay. He bought four, bought a crossover circuit from the local Radio Shack, wired them all up and mounted them to the bottom of his office chair. A nice comfortable chair, btw, which is a vast improvement over the Intensor's hard plastic seat. I finally got a chance to pay a visit last month, and I can honestly say the effect was phenomenal. The transducers provide an extra level of immersion that you really do have to try out to appreciate. He has a nice 4 speaker setup and so has no need for additional speakers. The transducers do a better job transferring the vibrations anyway. So for about $30 and a few hours labor, he was able to roll his own, for less expense and better results (IMO) than what he could have bought from the store.

Here is one that actually goes beyond the "sound representation". www.tactilefeedback.com Personally, I found the "speaker under your ass" concept to be utterly useless. You can't expect the sounds per-se to be an accurate representation of what your ass will feel. The VRF seat actually ports to the physics engine (rather easily)... and the seat reacts the way the "physics model" tells it too... not the sound model.

We got a bunch of these seats in the office way back when they were in business. They are kind of cool for some games. If you turn the bass up, you can feel the motor under your ass. The chair is pretty uncomfortable, so you wouldn't want it as your main computer chair. Ergonomics on it are just brutal.
