Title: Do subwoofers fsck up hard drives? Post by: indicasteve on August 24, 2011, 12:06:51 AM Well... I like to listen to stuff with bass. Shakes the shit out of the whole house.
My pc is in the same room as the sound system and when it's on, anything that's not nailed down looks like a woman's sex toy skitting across the floor. I know sub-bass can't be 'good' for a hard drive, but just how 'bad' is it? I try and keep my pc as far away from the subs as possible, but bass goes through anything. Maybe I should go to SSD for my 'media player'? IDK... anyone else have a hard drive crap out because you hammered it with your subsoofers? Title: Re: Do subwoofers fsck up hard drives?

It's the harmonics... keeping the same waveform over a sustained length of time seems to amplify the effect... gotta love the bass... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvDNqAY8gx4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvDNqAY8gx4) I gotta log out..my neighbors are getting pissed.
