For many many years I have kept a design file on a subwoofer which would be far larger than this. 3kW is jack crap. The subwoofer I have in the trunk of my daily driver is almost 1kW. I’m thinking more like 95 KVA, or 76kW at an assumed 0.8 power factor. 3” cone displacement and 18,000 LbF available to drive the cone. Low pass filtered at 2000 hz. I am entertaining all offers from our resident billionaires to quit my job at the jet building factory to create such a device. We can drag it to Burning Man. Our first capex will be this big ol electrodynamic shaker head.

Gorgeous. Not a billionaire but approximately how much would this cost to build?

For the labor? Sure.
