Anyone else ordering a SubPac?

Basically is a tactile bass system or a "Silent sub" you put on your seat. I tried someone's demo version and I had to have one. The new consumer version ships any day now.

It is responsive from 5-125hz

You can listen to a movie on headphones, and still experience the LFE.
If you are a producer, it can help you mix your low end and see how your kicks and bassline are going to sit in the mix.

"SubPac is a tactile audio system, designed and developed in Toronto, Canada. The SubPac consists of a combination of tactile transducers, vibro-tactile membranes, electronics and textiles, designed to deliver a physical dimension of sound. SubPac is available in a wearable and seatback format. The device was intended to move music hardware technologies in this area past simple ‘vibrating devices’ to deliver a complex and nuanced experience, to create an accurate tactile representation of whatever audio input is used. Outside of music production and enjoyment, the SubPac has a wide range of applications such as gaming, virtual reality (VR) and film enjoyment."

Here's a review, keep in mind it is for the early adapter version, I think this was the kickstarter version. Like I said the S2 is shipping any day now.

Tactile transducers have been around for awhile. I'm thinking a wireless self amplified system for HT would have been a better direction to go in. I think this would rock for gamers, but not so much for everyone else.

This one is supposedly much better in quality than ones of the past at a decent price point. The SubPac seems to be gaining more traction than past models as well. It is being marketed towards dance music producers and bass music enthusiasts, of which I am both, well a hobiest-producer anyway. But I'm exited to try it for HT LFE.

As long as it doesn't make you soil yourself during one of those drop D impact scenes.
