With coupon code FVF3XNS3 expiring today you get a $50 discount. So $249 instead of $299. This is the best deal I have found so far. Free shipping and no tax for most states.

I just ordered one. I'm really looking forward to try the one I just bought for gaming and movies. I'm not sure I'll like it at all with music.
People that already got a transducer could comment on their experience. I can't.

    They work surprisingly well for music. Guitammer originally created their transducers for use on drum stools to help drummers in loud environments (i.e. big concerts). I'm using a Buttkicker LFE along with a SVS 20-39CS+ subwoofer, and so long as you dial the Buttkicker's level in to mesh well with your sub, it gives a nice subtle tactile sensation that definitely adds to music. This is especially true if you have concrete floors like I do (carpeted, naturally), because it somewhat simulates the tactile response you would get from the vibration of wood flooring.

    Good find, man. Thanks for sharing. If I didn't already have the LFE, I'd be all over that.

    You are welcome :D. Actually I could have posted the deal earlier, but I forgot :o . The coupon has been active for about a 2/3 weeks.

    Too bad the coupon is expired now :(. So the price is back to $299.
