Wondering if anyone has ever heard of this specific subwoofer

[vinsin]

Hello everyone,

I registered today wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction regarding a coffee table subwoofer I remember my family home had in the later 90’s / early 2000’s. Unfortunately I don’t have any pictures as it’s in the depths of my parent’s basement and inaccessible at the moment. The table itself is roughly 4 feet long and weighed roughly 100 lbs. I’ve been trying to find an example of it given I’ve yet to find a subwoofer that kicked the same way. I rember it they entire room on specific notes. After some googling, I’ve yet to find any example of it (nothing even close to be frank). I’ll try to get some specs later on, but just wanted to know if it was something worth hanging on too.

Thanks,
Vincent

Without a pic its tough. There were a couple in the late 90s. 1 from velodyne and 1 from another that i cant remember. If your looking for a coffee or end table sub DIY is your best bet

Probably DIY as a guess, maybe something like Bill FitzMaurice's Table Tuba sub? https://billfitzmaurice.info/TT.html

I know DSS has something like that.

Yeah except David only started the company relatively recently....

I remember one, but I can't recall the name on it. It was on one side of it. For some reason, I think it was an Italian sounding name. A friend's parents had it for years. from the late 90's to about 2010, when they both passed away. Watching glasses slide across it like those old vibrator football games was mesmerizing. The raised edge prevented disaster.

About 3 years now. My point was the OP might be able to replicate that older design with modern equipment.
