Fans:

Check out the Thigpen rotary woofer at: Eminent Technology: home

It uses a fan blade modualted with audio starting at 1 Hz. I beleive it sells for $22,000.00.

It's a good example of lateral thinking.

It seems that things are pretty quite at Eminent Technology. Everything on their web-page is old.

There was a lengthy thread on another audio forum site about the installation and testing of a pair of them in a dedicated home theatre basement. Sorry, I don't have the URL on this machine. You could start here:
Rotary Subwoofer Install Blog

Also, Google "thigpen rotary woofer".
