Too many different things to list. Point is, it's just against the laws of physics.
There is no magic here, just good physics.

Not with something that you can carry on your back, especially once you add batteries to run it.
Anything small enough to carry as a backpack will probably not have any useful output below 120HZ or so.

For a parade gig, you're just going to have to pull a cart... No way around it.
