Boxxline Audio B-SHAKE High Power Pro Tactile Bass Shaker 50 Watts
The human ear has the ability to hear a wide range of sounds, however, some sound is simply too low to hear
and must be felt through the body. Feeling this extremely low frequency sound adds a new dimension to your
listening, gaming, and movie experiences.
With a Boxxline Audio B-SHAKE Bass Shaker installed in your home or auto sound system, you’ll feel those low
bass notes or the thundering weight of a dinosaur’s foot slamming against the ground as it approaches. Your
favourite action movies will come to life as you feel the cannon blasts and explosions impacting your body! If
you’re into die-hard gaming the B-SHAKE Bass Shaker is the perfect addition to your gaming chair or couch!
The power and impact of a football tackle puts you on the field and in the game! Feel the kick of your proton
gun as it fires against the enemy!
Unlike subwoofers, the B-SHAKE Bass Shaker will not overload your listening area, and the perceived loudness of
the B-SHAKE Bass Shaker improves listening at lower sound volumes. The engineers at Boxxline Audio designed
the B-SHAKE Bass Shaker to reproduce accurate, tactile sensations from your music and movie sound tracks.
When a B-SHAKE Bass Shaker is installed on a resonant surface, it increases the portion of tactile sound as
being "felt" beyond what is normally produced by subwoofers and ordinary speakers. Conventional subwoofers
are traditionally considered optimized when you can feel rather than hear the bass. By using a B-SHAKE Bass
Shaker in your system, this goal becomes easier to achieve -- enabling the subwoofer to perform at a more
natural sound level.
A specially formulated nylon/fiber spider and the selection of quality hardware components allow the B-SHAKE's
internal motor structure to not only outperform the competition but increase the product lifespan. Simply put,
with a Boxxline Audio B-SHAKE Bass Shaker you can count on years and years' worth of amazing blasts, shakes,
rolls, rattles, rumbles, thumps, bangs, and bumps!
Connecting a Single B-SHAKE Boxxline Audio Bass Shaker
The impedance of the B-SHAKE Bass Shaker is 4 ohms. When used in a single unit configuration it must be
hooked up to an amplifier that is either stereo or bridged mono, the same way you would connect a subwoofer.
Please consult the amplifier manual for details regarding the impedance rating of your amplifier.

Connecting Multiple B-SHAKE Boxxline Audio Bass Shakers
Two or four Boxxline Audio B-SHAKE Bass Shakers can be used in situations where more bass energy is desired
or in larger applications. Connecting two in Series configuration will raise the impedance to 8 ohms, connecting
two in Parallel will lower the impedance to 2 ohms, and wiring four B-SHAKE Bass Shakers in Series-Parallel will
keep the overall impedance to 4 ohms. Again, always consult your amplifier’s owners manual to verify it has the
power capability that produce the wattage safely at various impedances.
WARNING: Do NOT exceed 50 watts RMS per Bass Shaker multiplied by the number of Shakers (example: 50 x
4 = 200 Watts RMS)
Installation Notes
HOME –Mounting the Bass Shaker to chairs or couches that are not fixed to the floor will provide the greatest
effects. The Bass Shaker's energy will impact the user’s body rather than travel through the furniture and
disperse the energy into the floor.

Isolating the furniture from the floor is highly recommended by using pads or rubber
feet. Find a solid mounting area for your Bass Shaker(s) underneath and/or on the rear of the furniture’s
construction. Use four wood screws or stingers to mount the Bass Shaker to the structure. Should no solid
mount exist it is recommended that one be constructed using hardwood or plywood. Try to avoid fabric or
padding coming into contact with the Bass Shaker. It is important the Bass Shaker makes full contact with a
solid flat surface. Recommended wire gauge is 14-16 AWG speaker wire.
AUTO –Mounting the Bass Shaker under the seats is highly recommended rather than on the seat itself. Move
(or remove) your seat forward as far as possible, and identify the spot under the seat that vibrates the most by
knocking on the flooring using a rubber mallet or soft hammer. Again, ensuring the Bass Shaker comes into full
contact with the floor surface is critical to the performance of the Bass Shaker. Wiring in advance of the
installation is recommended. Ensure your wire is without kinks or bends and that no bare wire is touching metal.
Use four steel screws or stingers to mount the Bass Shaker to the floor of your vehicle. Recommended wire
gauge is 14-16 AWG speaker wire.
WARNING: Always check under carpeted locations and recheck the mounting area so as to not cut or drill into
any existing electrical wiring, airbag sensors, hydraulics, brakes, gas, or fuel lines.
ADDITIONAL NOTES AND SUGGESTIONS:
• 80 Hz or under low pass crossover suggested to reduce the possibility of high frequency sounds
• Recommended Amplifiers: Boxxline Audio BMAMP2-20 for single Bass Shakers, Boxxline Audio BMAM2-60 for 2
- 4 Bass Shaker installations. For larger installations we recommend the Boxxline Audio BDA-1100 or BDA-2200.
