Anything like bass shakers that adds a surreal experience? (1 Viewer)

[JoelM]

I just added four bass shakers which I should have done years ago. They are awesome. Is there any other things that I may not know about in terms of sensory type effects. I have a 7.8.6 system and at times it feels like a wind tunnel from the bass but is there anything else?

I have programmed different smells to go off at different times during movies using timed relays. I have also built an interactive greeter which talks to guests when they arrive with a ton of sayings and wishes them well as they leave. I love to implement these into my theater to make a surreal experience unlike any others.

Some Blu-rays have D-Box encodes. It didn't really take off in the home theatre enviroment because it requires specially equipped chairs.

I've always believed that properly placed subs that were driven by the proper sized amplifiers were enough. I've sat in several HT's with butt shakers and found them to be over the top and very distracting. Opinions may vary!
