 Best support ever January 8, 2008
I enjoy the BK gamer but the electronics fried after a few months. It was a pleasure dealing with the folks at Guittamer, the support that this company has is incredible! Great company to deal with.
It adds that extra "oomph" to your games... December 27, 2007
After reading the reviews, I decided to take the plunge and buy a Buttkicker for my gaming rig. For the price, I couldn't pass it up. Well...I'm am very happy that I did, because now my games come alive!
I'm an avid rFactor racer, and now the cars rumble, I feel the shifts, the bumps, the bumping from other cars. This has given my racing sim experience a more pleasurable experience.
The ONLY downside to this great product is the fans on the amp. Yes, like others have said...they are loud, loud, loud. Not jet engine loud, but there will be a noticeable increase in background noise with this baby on. But if you play with a headset on, you will not even notice it.
great buy and I am very happy with my purchase!
Great realisim December 18, 2007
I got this product to enhance my racing setup for GT4. I got the EVO racing seat and the GT25 racing wheel. The amplifier is much larger then it appears in the pictures and yes the fan is kind of loud but the effect is great when it kicks in. I have had a few issues with mine cutting out periodically. Some times I realize it was because I had it set to high and it shut off the seat unit because it got too hot. But I have noticed that sometimes it seems like there is no signal or response from the unit even though I hear base from the sub. One more issue is if you plan to use it with the EVO seats you have to come up with some sort of adapter or shim to make it work. I used a small screwdriver and it filled the gap perfectly and allowed me to tighten it very snug so I can get the full effect. This set up caused the device to be mounted horizontally instead of the designed vertical but I contacted the manufacturer and they told me this would not hinder the performance or harm the kicker. All I can say is when you race with this it really changes the feel and effect of the race.
 Less than thrilled November 19, 2007

Unit made hot smells and finally croaked on the fourth day. Up until that point it was sort of fun. Oh well, so it goes. Easy come, easy go.
ROCK YOUR WORLD! October 31, 2007
I just purchased the Buttkicker last week for only 50 bucks! At first I was skeptical because the price was so low, I did not if it would be a good product or not, but I WAS WRONG! I hooked this bad boy up with ease, no problems, you have to read the instructions carefully though. I attached it to my futon and watched "Pirates of the Carribean" and watching it again for the third time was a whole new experience, the fight scenes and explosions were great! I hear people complain about the noise of the fan, to tell you the truth, if you have your tv up, you can hardly hear it, I can hardly hear it, I thought it was going to be a loud screeching sound, but it's not, you could even cover it with something even you really want to muffle the sound, but again it is hardly noticeable. I even hooked this sucker up to my bed which was really cool and watched more movies. I dont have a video game system yet, so I used a SONY PSP, and it still works great the same, I say if you can invest in one of these, Look for one under 100 bucks, but it is still worth the price!
