Umm. Actually, it's a little known fact that a cow's 'Moo' extends into the lower frequencies. Perhaps keeping a cow on the foredeck would be cheaper than installing a subwoofer. Gotta go... Wal Frederick G Street wrote: Wal -- that should help the whales zero in on you, too. :^) Fred St

Ted, That is really cool and interesting. Thanks for posting the youtube and the details. I wonder if there's any sort of rock'n'roll or other music that barnacles and slime find repulsive.

Hi, I had a similar installation question. Since most stereos are set up for 4 Ohm impedance, I assumed that Ted connected the 8 Ohm exciters in parallel to match the stereo. It turns out this is so. See the comments I found on sailboatowners.com: http://forums.beneteau.sailboatowners.c

Very interesting. Any pictures or wiring diagrams? My old Bose speakers are doing fine, but this sounds interesting. So far, my only failure has been the wired cockpit remote -- and that failure is a royal PITA as the stereo headset is at the other end of the boat. It blew out after some new

*Published on May 14, 2013* This is a stereo installation using sound exciters instead of conventional speakers on a sailboat. The actual sound quality is much better than what was recorded using my iPad. The sound exciters are less than 2 inches in diameter. They are mounted to the fiberglass sur
