Can My Subwoofers Damage My Home


Hi, I have 2 Paradigm Signature Sub 25s in my second Floor Home Theater and they vibrate my room when i watch movies. I wonder if this causes any structural damage to my Home . Each sub is sitting on top of 2 Auralex Grammas and i beleive the virations are coming from the sound rather than the physical vibration of the Subs itself. Do you think this will cause any structural damage to my House?

You should be very concerned. I'm not sure how they do it but Paradigm and a consortium of other high powered subwoofer manufacturers have managed to keep out of the media headlights well documented cases of subwoofer vibration completely destroying otherwise structurally sound buildings. Google "the 2009 Edina, MN apartment building collapse mystery" and read between the lines. It's scary stuff, but it gets even worse. Several victims of subwoofer abuse had hired a lawyer who was going to orchestrate a class action lawsuit on their behalf. Within days, he's walking down the sidewalk and a piano falls on his head. Freak accident -- I think not! Be afraid my friend, be very afraid.
It is a proven fact that subwoofers reduce the structural integrity of homes. The vibration causes the nails to slowly work their way out of the framework of the home until it finally collapses and all that is left is a pile of rubble. This is especially dangerous with second floor home theater systems as it is known to create the "Trickle Down Effect". I recommend having your home inspected regularly for this unusual phenomenon.
