A new study in Egypt found that the pyramids may have survived thousands of years of earthquakes because of their vibration frequency.

The study stopped short of claiming that ancient Egyptians intentionally designed the pyramid to resist earthquakes. Researchers said there is no direct evidence proving ancient builders understood seismic engineering in the modern sense.

Still, the findings suggest the Great Pyramid’s geometry and construction methods naturally reduced seismic risks. Researchers said the monument remains “a testament to ancient seismic engineering principles” that could still inform modern heritage preservation efforts.

    Provided I have the subs, do you have a how-to, or a link on how to do that?

      I use my laptop as a source so I can just click on a full parametric EQ. I’ll just throw a boost with medium Q centered on 75hz on, then slide the central frequency down to 30hz and just watch when they start to feel it. So long as you don’t have a room node right in there it’s pretty easy to tell when you’ve got it.
