Default Crowson Technology Motion Actuator Kit Review

[TES100]Motion actuators and tactile transducers can be a quick, easy and effective way to add fun and excitement to your home theater system. There are several manufacturers now offering kits and they vary in design, performance installation criteria and price. Crowson Technology, a company located in California has recently introduced a new transducer with a new patent-pending technology called Liner Direct Drive. The manufacturer claims it has much better performance over conventional transducers from this new technology.

Default crowson review tes-100

you finally got a review huh? see i told you guys they were awesome... much mor realistic than the buttkickers.

just wait until you feel certain scenes. certain video games and movies have them, where it feels like its moving back and forth. still amazes me how realistic and accurate they are.

Holy karp. How many reviews have there been where a forum member credited the wrong reviewer?

Great review Gene!

oh.. here it is. but anyway yeah,

good review, the tes's get cooler the more you test it. There are lots of strange lfe on certain tracks and its unique to feel the completely different motions.


great product though, ive had them for a couple years
ive been trying to recommend them ever since.

Thanks guys,
I have another transducer kit headed my way for review from another manufacture that I am very excited about. I should receive them in the next week or two and I will proceed with the evaluation.

Will these be given away in any contests? I could always use extension to 1 hert.

so youd recommend this product over the buttkicker(one of your 2005 products of the year) hands down?

quality of the TES-100's is obviously in a league above the buttkickers as it seems.. but what about just your personal recommendation in terms of worth of purchase and extra $.

maybe you should wait until you review the next one to so you can reply about all 3.
