    Why not 2, or 4? you may never know the difference, but It will be a different load on the amp on one channel no matter how you hook up an odd number of them.

    I have pretty limited experience with these. They seem to work best when mounted on something solid, heavy. I had them mounted to my couch, good results. Mounted 2 of them to my recliner for sh*ts and giggles, not good.

    If you can mount them to something that your theater seats are mounted on, it might be better.

    Good luck and have fun

    Two ways of doing this. One is to shake your butt in a vertical motion (did I just seriously type that?) and the other is to shake your back in a horizontal motion. I like the back motion personally. One big problem is if your feet touch the floor and the floor is not shaking. Put's an end to the fun.
