[Solved] Does your Logitech Z-5500 shake your room?

Forum Audio : General Discussion [Solved] Does your Logitech Z-5500 shake your room?

For you Logitech Z-5500 owners here, does your sub shake your room? I've had it for 3 years now, and I think they're decent speakers. I've been reading reviews and people's opinions on forums and the consensus seems to be they shake walls and stuff.

But I don't get that.

I cannot get my room to shake no matter how loud I turn it. My room is not big (about 100 square feet), and the best it can do is vibrate my desk, which requires me to turn it to about 5 bars, much much louder than my normal listening levels. I usually listen to music at 1 to 1.5 bars and watch movies at 5 bars.

Walls shake when they are thin and poorly braced. If that's what you are looking for, I suggest you find somewhere else to live.

many people say taht either cos they lie, and want to show off. or they house is pretty much made out of cardboard.

my speakers shake the chair and the floor and the table thats its sitting on. NOT THE WALL.

People spend hundreds of dollars or more for acoustic treatment to deaden the vibration in their cars. Even bassheads want greater *clean* bass output, not a shaking tin can, because that just sounds like someone with a crappy stock setup turned all the way up.

I like my room to shake,which I'm not getting. If my room is shaking, my wall is shaking too, right?

There may be a tool to hollow out your walls, I don't know.

If your into trying to shake the walls in your room maybe try Volume boost..Your volume goes to 10 with boost you can take it up to 22 and that will do more then shake your room just say you wont make friends with your neighbours..
