We're at it again... ... giveaways galore! Roman at Ultimate Home Entertainment has got a special giveaway loaded with options for the winner. Check this out...

One lucky winner will have their choice of the following:

Buttkicker LFE Kit: This easy to use kit simplifies using the ButtKicker with your furniture. Just place the mounting plate under one leg of your furniture and attach the ButtKicker to the other side. Rubber isolators are included for placing under furniture other legs.

Includes: one ButtKicker LFE, one BKA-1000-4 amplifier, one ButtKicker cable kit, one Chair/Couch Mounting Kit.

OR

PLUS + PLUS + PLUS

Buttkicker LFE: The only tactile transducer designed specifically to take advantage of the .1 and LFE channels, the ButtKicker® LFE features extended low frequency response for powerful bass response and special effects. Different from other shakers or tactile transducers that use voice coil technology, the ButtKicker is much more powerful, more musical (linear) and offer true infrasonic or low frequency response with their resonant frequency of 9 Hz and range of 5 - 200 Hz.









...







However... let's say you already own all the Buttkickers you need... or your sub is tough enough and provides all the rumble you need... or you just can't work it out to use a Buttkicker system. Maybe instead you love to eat popcorn and if you had the option of having some of the best popcorn you ever slapped in your mouth popped up by your very own popper, you'd jump all over it! Well, behind door number three is one of these babies:

Metropolitan 6oz Popper with Pedestal

Inspired by the art deco architecture of the late 1920’s and 1930’s, these popcorn machines are ideal for home theaters. Its unique design enables it to be placed against a wall for a minimal space requirement while still providing an attractive visual impact. Ordinary popcorn machines have the graphics and cosmetic appeal on the back of the popper making them unsuitable for wall placement.

These commercial quality poppers feature an aluminum food-zone, 20 mil anodized kettle for easy cleaning, a heated warming deck to keep the popped corn fresh for hours, an old-maid drawer for un-popped kernels, and is built with tempered glass panels. The pedestal base provides storage for all of your popcorn supplies while placing the popper at the ideal operating height. You also get a three year parts warranty.

Trust me… I know because I own one just like this… it’s the best popcorn I’ve ever eaten…













...






So it's winners' choice... either a wired or wireless Buttkicker system plus an LFE ...or... a Metropolitan popcorn machine.

Fabulous prizes Sonnie! Kinda makes me wish I wasn't staff...

The Buttkicker thing fascinates me... I'm not sure I've heard of anyone using those in Australia. Any good links we can go to?

Nice contest..........
But why does every contest have this requirement?

A minimum of 1 DVD movie or concert review thread created during the qualification period. (250 word minimum.)

I guess those of us that can't write a review better than "I liked it" or "I didn't like it", just get left out, with no chance of ever winning anything here? Not everyone can write a review.
I would have tried for the $250 DVD contest, if it hadn't been for this requirement.

We've had several giveaways and only two that I can remember have had that requirement. The giveaways are designed to help us generate content in areas we need content. The reviews do not have to be professional, just tell us what you liked and/or didn't like about the movie and why. None the less... there will always be someone who feels like they are left out for one reason or another, it's hard to please everyone.

I am new here, but this is a very cool contest. I have to get posting to make the requirements.
