At higher volumes you can feel the base below 4Hz but do to the frequency drop-off, you would be damaging your ears from the rest of the sound trying to feel it. A six dollar cord could cost me a lot of money because of bad specs on the size of tha male input plug on tha cord. Update:I contacted Keen after I realized that they offer a one year warranty and unlike other boot manufacturers, they dont require you to send the boots in. I wish they made an 8. It is great quality and appears robust. Looks nice but 2 sizes bigger than the size chart indicates. Hopefully another size 12 will be in better condition. But again, if you have the money and dont mind tinkering a bit the valve index is a big leap forward in VR technology. Controller has a cheap feel to it. Comes with super cute "keychains.
