Black holes are the ultimate subwoofer.

Black Hole Sound Waves
Black Hole- The Ultimate Subwoofer
Black Holes: Extremely Distant and Incredibly Loud

"NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has detected a cacophony of ultra-deep sound resonating through galaxy M87 thanks to a black hole that emits sounds around 56 octaves below middle C."

"The loops and rings in the hot, X-ray emitting gas that permeates M87 indicate periodic eruptions that occur near the black hole, generating changes in pressure in the gas that manifest themselves as sound."

"Incredibly, the inflation of these bubbles is akin to firing up a colossal sub-woofer, setting sound waves in motion that flood outwards as ripples that are over a hundred thousand light years in width (you can see them in this picture). That's a note played at a frequency a million, billion times lower than anything the human ear can detect. And the output is a whopping ten-to-the-power-of-thirty-seven watts, or about ten billion times the energy of our Sun."

Well, it is for a very few up there. Unfortunately you cannot turn it on or off at will nor attach it to a good movie.

For a moment I was hoping to tune into it and open the windows during movies to enhance the experience. But, that moment passed.
