Sonic Immersion VT200 IBEAM Transducer

You will need an amplifier capable of driving a 4-ohm load. Since the VT200 handles 100W continuous power, a dedicated subwoofer amplifier or a high-quality stereo amplifier with sufficient headroom is recommended to get the best tactile response.

The VT200 works best when mounted to a rigid surface, such as the wooden frame of a sofa, a recliner, or a gaming chair. Avoid mounting it to loose cushions or soft foam, as these will absorb the vibrations rather than transferring them to you.

No, the VT200 is designed to complement your subwoofer, not replace it. While it excels at reproducing the physical sensation of low-frequency effects, it does not produce audible sound waves, so you still need a traditional subwoofer for the actual bass audio.

The integrated PPTC fuse acts as an automatic overload protector. If the transducer receives too much power or is driven beyond its limits, the fuse will temporarily cut the signal to prevent damage to the internal components, ensuring long-term reliability.

Installation is straightforward and designed for DIYers. You simply bolt the unit to a sturdy part of your seating structure and connect it to your amplifier using standard speaker wire, just as you would with a passive speaker.

With a range of 20 Hz to 800 Hz, the VT200 captures a wider spectrum than many basic bass shakers. This allows it to reproduce not just deep, room-shaking rumbles, but also more nuanced, higher-frequency tactile textures like gunshots or engine revs.
