If so, what are your impressions? Could this be a revelation in the

It's a fan !
Heh, sure looks like one.
From the description I'm not so sure that this is something I'd want.
Conventional subwoofers do a pretty decent job imo. Turning my entire
attic (or a dedicated room) into a sub would probably just annoy my
neighbors!
Admittedly I am not a real bass head though...
As far as I can see it just creates a draught !
EV used to make the fabulous 30W woofer with an Fs of 15Hz IIRC ! The data
sheet
includes advice for wall mounting for example !
EV have done some crazy things over the years and this was one of their
nuttiest. Bless them !
The 30W woofer was deeply flawed. The voice coil could only handle about a
60 watt amp without slowly frying. The voice coil and magnetic structure
limited the Xmax to a few millimeters. I suspect that a modern 8" driver
could move about as much air.
