## Questions & Answers

**Q: Item dimensions?  Impendance (ohms)?**
A: Power handling: 100 watts RMS/350 watts max • Tactile frequency response: 15-800 Hz • Audible frequency response: 35-17,000 Hz • Impedance: 4 ohms • Transduction force: 1.6 lbs.-ft./watt • Peak tactile force: 216 lbs.-ft. • Dimensions: 8.0" dia. x 1.73" H.

**Q: How do you necessarily 'mount' this device to your sofa? I just don't see any mounting instructions.**
A: It comes with a bracket that you need to screw onto the sofa.

**Q: do these get hot? Do they need ventilation or can they be covered?  what about at lower power?**
A: They get warm but not hot to the touch. I don’t think you need ventilation under normal use.

**Q: My 150” is in front of my king mattress and box springs. Can I put plywood underneath the box springs and mount 6 or 8 of these under the bed?**
A: ld think 6 or 8 would be way overkill. I have one mounted to the frame of a 3 seat couch running on a 100 watt amp and it shakes the couch as much as I could ever want. Yes your mattress will probably soak up some of the vibrations, but I think if you get some isolation feet and then mount a couple of these to the bed frame, it would give you all the shake you desire. You could always add more later if you think you need it, or for the price of buying 6-8 of these, you could get a higher end buttkicker system . . .

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I did not think i would like them. turns out i love them
*by B***R on June 10, 2014*

Out of everyone I know I have the best home theater out there. After hooking up the TST 209 transducers my friends could only say. Wow I did not know your system could get any better.One thing I would like to point out. Transducers do not replace subs but they add to it. For example when showing my home theater off I would crank the volume up so that when an explosion would happen people would feel the base. Feeling the concussion of a blast is part of what makes it feel like you’re there. With transducers you can get the exact same effect but at a high volume or at a low volume.How to hook them up? I bought the Dayton SPA250. Im happy I did. After doing a lot of research I found that you don’t wire these like normal speakers but you wire them in series. If you are wiring more then one transducer you want to go from the positive of the amp to the positive the of transducer. Then from the negative of the transducer will go to the positive of the next transducer. When you get to your last transducer you will lead the negative wire back to the negative of the amp. This will complete the series.If you have a home theater and you’re wondering if it makes a difference just know that it does. If you wondering if you should get these or butt shakers I would say get the TST 209 or better .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Life with the Clark Synthesis TST209
*by B***K on November 26, 2012*

I originally had 2 Aura Bass Shakers powered by a vintage Pioneer SX-1080 amp rated at 120 watts RMS per channel into 8 ohms and 170 watts RMS into 4 ohms. These were driven from a Y-out of the 5.1 subwoofer output to the SX-1080 amp input. This set up provided plenty of bass affect into a couple of Lazy Boy recliners for a couple of years with the 5.1 home theatre system before finding the Clark Synthesis TST209s.Pound for pound and dollar for dollar the TST209 does much more with the same power/mounting than the Aura Bass Shakers. I highly recommend them, especially if your significant other complains about loud bass but you like to "feel" the sound. All this said, one of the TST209s has failed 11 months into it's service. I am not sure of the warranty but am starting down the replacement path and will follow up this review with an update.Update on replacement: I called the seller of the TST209 and they indicated that they would replace the defective item since there was a 2 year warranty. I live close to the vendor's store (fortunately) and took the TST209 directly to their store. They took care of everything (even exchange) in about 30 minutes. I would not hesitate to purchase these from the seller again.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Works, but requires lots of tuning
*by D***N on January 3, 2019*

I was debating between this model and the next model up, and I wish I would have gotten the next model up. These units seem to not have any voice coil short protection, and when they get too much power the voice coils touch (I'm assuming) and it shorts out the speaker. I have a short protection on my amp and it luckily seems to cut power before anything bad happens, but it's really annoying and makes me wish I would have gotten the more powerful transducers. It just wasn't in the budget.Usage: I'm running these on the four corners of a sim racing rig to simulate chassis rumble.
