All About Seatcraft SoundShaker Theater Seating

Seatcraft home theater seats, powered by SoundShaker®, take your home theater from immersive to truly felt. Instead of just hearing the low rumbles of an explosion or a roaring engine, these sound shaker chairs let you feel the impact right through your seat. It’s a technology that turns every movie, game, or concert into a 4D experience, without changing your existing audio setup.

How It Works

Each SoundShaker® seat features a compact transducer built directly into the chair. When your movie or game sends out deep bass frequencies, the system translates those low-end effects into gentle, precise vibrations. The seat moves in sync with your soundtrack.

The setup is simple. Your SoundShaker amplifier connects to your receiver’s subwoofer output, then wirelessly sends the signal to your soundshaker theater seats. There’s no need for new speakers, messy rewiring, or special software. The result is a clean, low-latency response that matches what’s happening on screen perfectly.

Why It Feels So Real

Models like the Seatcraft Vibrato SoundShaker come with built-in speakers. So, it doesn’t just play the sound louder but adds physical depth to it. You get the sensation of real movement and energy, even when the main volume is turned down. That means you can keep your bass levels low at night or in shared spaces while still feeling the full drama of every scene.

Because the vibrations are localized to each chair, there’s no wall rattle or floor resonance leaking into other rooms. It’s the cinematic rush you want, without disturbing anyone else in the house.

Built for Comfort, Designed for Performance

Seatcraft pairs this advanced technology with the same craftsmanship and comfort that define its premium collections. You’ll find home theater seating with speakers-level immersion, but with features that take relaxation seriously.

Depending on the model, you can choose between Top-Grain or Italian Leather, Cool gel foam cushions, and ergonomic support that holds up through long movie marathons. Each sound shaker chair arrives ready to connect, bringing together tactile realism and luxury comfort in one seamless package.

Easy Setup for Any Room

Installation is refreshingly straightforward. Every SoundShaker-ready seat includes the internal transducer, so all you need is the SoundShaker amplifier. Connect it to your AV receiver’s sub output, pair it wirelessly, and fine-tune the preferred intensity settings to your liking.

One amplifier can power up to four seats, so you can start small with a single row and expand later as your home theater grows. It’s plug-and-play design that delivers professional-grade results without technical headaches.

Who It’s For

If you love the idea of home theater seating with built-in speakers but want a cleaner, more flexible setup, SoundShaker is for you. It’s especially great for movie lovers, gamers, and sports fans who want to experience the rush of a chase scene, the rumble of a crowd, or the tension of a cinematic explosion.

Because the feedback comes from your seat, every moment feels more alive and immediate. You’ll notice new layers of detail in your favorite films and games, all while keeping your room acoustically balanced.

Your Personal Theater Upgrade!

Seatcraft’s SoundShaker theater seats bring the thrill of cinema motion to your living room. With one thoughtful addition, your entertainment space goes from impressive to unforgettable.

This is the difference between just watching a movie and being inside it.
