PREORDER

Xcite XBS200-4 is a passive 4-ohm bass shaker for powerful haptic systems in sim racing, flight simulation and home cinema. It delivers ±15 mm excursion, 920 N peak force, 650 N average force and a 10 Hz - 1 kHz range. Its aluminium housing measures 230 mm in diameter and 62 mm in height. An external amplifier and speaker cable are required. See our other bass shakers.

Powerful tactile output for a substantial simulator

Xcite XBS200-4 turns a low-frequency audio signal into movement that can be felt through a seat, cockpit floor or another rigid part of the simulator. The manufacturer rates it at 920 N peak force and 650 N average force. Its ±15 mm mechanical excursion provides plenty of movement for installations where a smaller shaker cannot transfer a strong enough impulse through the complete structure.

In sim racing, individual audio channels can represent engine speed, gear changes, bumps, kerbs or loss of grip. The actual effects depend on the signal source and software configuration. XBS200-4 does not read telemetry on its own. It is the final device in the audio chain and reproduces the signal supplied by the amplifier.

The passive 4-ohm design needs a suitable amplifier

XBS200-4 has a nominal impedance of 4 ohms and a voice-coil DC resistance of 4.08 ohms. It does not include an amplifier, sound card or USB interface. A typical PC setup therefore consists of software generating the effects, an audio output, an amplifier that is stable into a 4-ohm load, and speaker cable running to the shaker.

The technical data lists two different IEC 60268-5 power figures: 200 W for the RMS noise test and 1000 W for long-term maximum power. The 1000 W figure should not be described as RMS power. Amplifier selection should take into account its real output into 4 ohms, cooling, filter settings and safe operating headroom for the complete installation.

SpiderCore, a large voice coil and steel suspension

The internal assembly combines a neodymium motor, a four-layer 178 mm voice coil and dual steel suspension. The SpiderCore architecture integrates the guiding elements into the central structure. This keeps the moving mass controlled while allowing the housing to remain relatively low despite the large diameter of the unit.

Resonant frequency is 21.1 Hz and rated force sensitivity is 16.1 N/W averaged from 10 to 100 Hz. Xcite specifies a 10 Hz - 1 kHz operating range at -10 dB. In practice, filter settings should be matched to the mounting point and the effects being reproduced. Different tactile events do not need the same frequency or output level.

Rigid mounting to a plate or cockpit structure

The housing measures 230 mm in diameter and 62 mm in height, with a total weight of 4.842 kg. The mounting diameter is 215 mm. Before drilling, compare the technical drawing with the intended installation point and leave access to the cable terminals. A rigid connection to a seat plate, platform or profile transfers movement efficiently. Soft spacers and flexible brackets may absorb part of the motion instead.

The shaker itself carries an IP66 rating, but this does not give the same protection to the amplifier, cable or other connections. The device weight and the forces produced in operation must be considered when selecting the mounting plate and fasteners. Xcite does not publish a mounting-hardware set, so the fixing method should be chosen for the specific structure.

1. What does Xcite XBS200-4 do?

It is a passive transducer that converts an amplified audio signal into vibrations felt through a seat, cockpit or another rigid structure.

2. Is XBS200-4 rated at 200 W or 1000 W?

Both figures appear in the datasheet, but they describe different IEC 60268-5 tests. Xcite lists 200 W for the RMS noise test and 1000 W as long-term maximum power. The 1000 W figure should not be labelled as RMS power.

3. Does the bass shaker need an amplifier?

Yes. XBS200-4 is a passive 4-ohm transducer and requires an external amplifier that is stable into this load.

4. Can Xcite XBS200-4 connect directly to a PC?

No. The shaker has no USB interface or built-in sound card. The PC sends audio to an amplifier, which then drives XBS200-4.

5. Does XBS200-4 work with SimHub?

Yes, as part of an audio chain. SimHub generates the signal through a sound card, an amplifier increases its level, and the shaker converts it into movement.

6. What are the dimensions and weight of XBS200-4?

The unit is 230 mm in diameter, 62 mm high and weighs 4842 g.

7. What is the mounting diameter?

Xcite specifies a 215 mm mounting diameter. Compare the intended installation point with the technical drawing before drilling.

8. How much force does Xcite XBS200-4 produce?

Rated peak force is 920 N and average force is 650 N. Mechanical excursion is ±15 mm.

9. What does the IP66 rating cover?

It covers the transducer itself against dust and strong water jets. It does not automatically protect the amplifier, cables or other connections.

10. What is included in the box?

The confirmed item is one Xcite XBS200-4. Xcite does not list an amplifier, cable, brackets or mounting screws as package contents.

11. How long is the warranty for Xcite XBS200-4?

Xcite Audio products purchased from Simline.eu are covered for up to 2 years within the European Union, subject to the sales and warranty terms applicable to the order.

12. How is an Xcite Audio warranty claim handled?

Simline.eu receives the claim documentation and handles the case. After reviewing the description, photos or video, we provide the next instructions for the warranty process.

13. How do I report a fault with Xcite XBS200-4?

Email support@simline.eu with the order number, a description of the issue and photos or video showing the fault. Further instructions will be provided after verification.
