Laughing and Screaming with Great Delight
It was a phone call. A phone call I didn’t expect. A phone call that, well, you will see… Some years ago, I had a neighbor named Kurt. Kurt was an interesting guy. He was an airline pilot, restored tube radios, and had built a simple home theater. In his basement was an alcove outside his son’s bedroom. Kurt mounted a [...]
Comparing TSTs – There Is More to The Story
Today we are releasing a new video comparing the different TSTs (Tactile Sound Transducers). Watching this video will give you some idea of how the different models compare to one another. As always, there is more to the story.  We offer four levels of TSTs. These range from the TST209 entry level Transducer up to the TST429 Platinum Transducer. Let me put in a note here about the TST209. We build the TST209 for Parts [...]
Which TST for the Best Haptic Experience?
What do designers of the best immersive experiences know?  They have learned that large area haptic feedback makes the experience more real, more personal, and much more fun.  This is why you see great haptic feedback in immersive VR experiences, military/commercial training simulators, theme park attractions, gaming rigs, and home theaters. We have been working with these designers for the last 25 years. [...]
Yes! Clark Synthesis TSTs are used in therapy chairs, therapy beds, massage tables, etc. If you do a Google search for Vibroacoustic, you will find many products that contain Clark Synthesis TSTs.
Clark Synthesis Tactile Sound Transducers (TSTs) transform pure audio as electrical energy into pure audio as vibrational energy. TSTs are much more than shakers. Shakers only make things shake. TSTs faithfully reproduce audio signals bringing new levels of realism and enjoyment to VR spaces, Home Theaters, Simulators, Movie Theaters, etc.
Yes. Be sure to wire the TSTs in-phase so they all work together.
Ventilation is not always required. However, warmer climates and environments may require ventilation. Contact Clark Synthesis for specific recommendations.
We recommend 3 inches of clearance.
We recommend 16 gauge wire for up to 50 feet of length; 14 gauge wire for 50 feet to 150 feet; 12 gauge for distanced greater than 150 feet.
This means both TSTs are wired the same way to the amplifier.

Tactile Sound is pure audio that is felt through touch and is heard through bone conduction.
We recommend a 125 watt amplifier at 4 ohms for the TST239 and a 150 watt amplifier at 4 ohms for the three-series and four-series TSTs.
We recommend the TST329 Gold TST for dirty environments. We recommend the AW339 for dirty environments that may be extremely damp.
