    I would think facing them towards each other would not be a good thing. Also make sure you don't have them wired out of phase with each other. I would definitely face them all the same way though.

    I am going to try two things. First I am going to move the bass shakers so they are firing the same direction as to rule out the idea of them canceling out each other. Second, I read on the website of one of the bass shakers competitors that the amp they include with their unit needs a strong signal from the reciever. They offered a solution with a RCA amplifier from radioshack. If these don't work I will just buy more bass shakers.

    howdy,
    I see this is a couple years old, but what happened, did you ever get the bass shakers working right?
    are you happy with the results?

    Yeah... They are working great. I have a sectional (3 parts) and a chair now so there is only one regular bass shaker attached to each part. Some would say that this isn't enough but I have been quite pleased. They do give the illusion of more bass without upsetting the neighbors.
