bone-rattling bass
"bone-crunching" is usable too; "booming bass" is a cliché though

for "mélyek" you can use "lows" or "low end"
"these speakers can pump out a bone-shaking low end when they have to" (is this a good thing?)

I see. Well you can certainly use this negatively as well as positively. My sample sentence was written for a teenage audience. (!)

Note from asker:
| Thanks for the answer. In my text they say the bass is not the "gatyalengető" type. So, gatyalengető is used in a negative sense. |

ground/room/kidney etc. shaking bass
"... shaking bass", sokféke verzióban. Még "pant-shaking" találat is van, de azért az nem túl meggyőző...
