True dat. The problem with infrasound is it requires a shit-ton of energy consumed by transducers you've never met. an 18" JBL woofer can suck down a thousand watts and roll off 12dB at 18Hz. 9Hz is effectively out of reach for all but the most die-hard tweakers. I'd characterize G-ennesis and crew as punters. I once read a semi-credible account of infrasonic weapons deployed by the US Army in Somalia (Scientific American) but I haven't seen anything in 15 years and there aren't many credible sources on the Internet these days. Thing is, the amount of energy you need to burn in order to create infrasound, you could pretty much tase a herd of cattle quieter, more effectively and over a greater range.
