RE: Observable Woofer Cone Movement

I couldn't see the woofer cones actually moving, but the most eye-popping bass demo I ever saw was at a Tower of Power concert a few yeas back at the Minnesota Zoo's outdoor amphitheater.
They had a couple of big JBL bass bins laying on the ground horizontally on either side of the stage, and one of the security crew was sitting on one of them, facing the crowd to keep an eye on things. His legs were dangling in front of the horn's mouth, at least I believe it was a horn but couldn't tell because the grill cloth was hiding whatever was in there.
Anyhow I was about 25 feet away from this guy and even from that distance I could see his blue jeans flutter in time with the kick drum, and there was no wind that night so this wasn't being caused by any act of nature. That was some SERIOUS bass!
