Default They Still Make Bass shakers?

Was looking into the bass shakers, couldn't find them at www.partsexpress.com . Do they still make them? Anyone have any alternate sources?

A couple links to check out for the Pros:

http://store.autotoys.com/

I'll look for more later... I'm thinking of adding a pair to my system as well.

For more "oomph" you might want to check out the transducers sold by Clark Synthesis. They have substantially more power handling (100W RMS) and are capable of 216 lbs-force, vs 30 lbs-force for the Bass Shaker Pros. They are also considerably more expensive, ~$200 each. They might rattle your car to pieces if you're overzealous with the volume control too!

Keith, buddy, no. There's no SUBstitute for the real thing. I had the auras in my car last year... you know hooked up to the rear channels. Well thats the seed that got me started on these rear speakers. The big Kens you're getting WILL make a difference in bass! If you're still hungry for more, power a sub on your 5th channel.

Its all good now.

A buddy of mine hooked me up with a JL Audio Microsub for $100. My new 5-channel amp (swapped for my 4 channel) will be in Monday at 6pm, the sub will go in after. Hopefully the new speakers will come Monday as well (since your in PA Jim, they might).

Now... Should I ditch the spare tire or not? Maybe I need to relocate the spare somehow...
