Using a subwoofer as a makeshift vibrator/sybian thing?

[Laser23]

Would a spicific frequency be better/worse?
or just play some music

Short answer: probably not.

 

Longer answer: bad idea.  A subwoofer, being specifically designed to generate loud sound, will be significantly louder than a vibrator at any sort of roughly equivalent power level... probably hearing-damaging levels of loud.  Also, unlike a vibration motor (which is a powerful motor with an off-center weight), the electromagnetic coil that drives a subwoofer (or any speaker for that matter) is calibrated to only be powerful enough to be a speaker by moving a few grams worth of speaker cone material.  You can use one finger to significantly dampen the movement of a speaker cone, so trying to mount anything to your subwoofer such that it transmits the vibrations will be self-defeating, both by dramatically increasing the mass that the electromagnetic coil has to move, and also from the fact that as soon as you press your body against it, it'll simply stop moving.  And if that all wasn't bad enough, there's also the fact that many cheaper speaker driver designs short out and melt if they physically bottom-out while being driven, so there's a decent risk that you'll also destroy your subwoofer by trying.

 

If you want a powerful vibrator for not a lot of money, just get a Hitachi Magic Wand like everyone else.
