300 watts of serious tactile feedback for rigs that need more than a small shaker.
The Dayton Audio BST-300EX is a high-power tactile bass shaker built for demanding haptic systems. Instead of adding more sound to the room, it converts low-frequency amplifier power into physical vibration you can feel through a seat, cockpit frame, platform or simulator structure.



Built for strong, low-frequency movement in a rigid cockpit.
The BST-300EX is made for applications where a smaller transducer starts to feel weak: heavy sim racing rigs, cockpit platforms, home theater seats and tactile builds where low-end impact needs real authority. Mounted firmly to a rigid structure, it can deliver kerbs, engine vibration, road texture, gear shifts and cinematic low-frequency effects with much more force than entry-level shakers.
300W RMS power handling gives the shaker serious headroom for demanding haptic feedback.
10-200 Hz response keeps the effect in the physical vibration range instead of chasing audible midrange noise.
Best results come from a firm mount to a seat frame, platform, pedal deck or cockpit structure.
This is a large, heavy shaker, so installation space and mounting strength matter.

Pair it with a real 4 Ohm amplifier, not a tiny desktop amp.
A 300W tactile transducer needs the right amplifier, wiring and gain structure. Use an amplifier that is stable into a 4 Ohm load and powerful enough for the target effect. For cleaner tactile feedback, run the signal through SimHub, DSP or a low-pass setup and keep high-frequency content away from the shaker.
Designed for high-power tactile applications with proper amplification.
A low-pass crossover around 80 Hz helps keep the effect focused and reduces unwanted high-frequency vibration.
Match it with an amplifier that can safely drive a 4 Ohm tactile transducer.
This product is the bass shaker only. Amplifier, wiring and mounting hardware are selected separately.
Mount it where the structure can carry the force.
The BST-300EX weighs around 1.7 kg and produces strong mechanical energy. It should be bolted to a solid surface that will not flex, rattle or loosen during long sessions. In sim racing, the best position depends on the effect you want: seat for body feel, pedal area for road detail, or a dedicated platform for more distributed vibration.

Seat frame, cockpit profile, platform or another solid structure that can transfer vibration cleanly.
Use appropriate mounting hardware for the structure and check fasteners after the first sessions.
Use low-frequency telemetry or audio content and avoid sending unnecessary high-frequency material.
For builds where tactile feedback should feel physical, not decorative.
Kerbs, shifts, RPM, wheel slip and road texture can be felt through the cockpit structure.
Add low-frequency vibration for engines, turbulence, runway texture and heavy vehicle feel.
Low-frequency movie effects become physical without needing extreme room volume.
Useful for dedicated tactile platforms where multiple smaller shakers are not enough.
Dayton Audio BST-300EX Extreme High Power Pro tactile bass shaker.
Is this stronger than a typical small bass shaker?
Yes. The BST-300EX is a high-power 300W tactile transducer. It is meant for serious haptic systems, not small desktop amplifier experiments.
What else do I need?
You need a suitable 4 Ohm amplifier, speaker wire, mounting hardware and a signal source such as SimHub, DSP or low-frequency audio feed.
