I found a few threads that talked about a rattle but I'm not entirely sure if I'm in the same category.
I have a rattle/vibe from the engine at under 1500 rpm or so. So pretty much upon launching the car on first gear (my rpm usual dips to 1k) and sometimes on turns. As I said, pretty much anytime under 1500 rpm on load. On idle it doesn't appear to come on or it's just not quite as amplified.
The sound is quite deep and I thought it was just because the car was cold, but now that the weather is warming up, I still have the noise.
Any ideas, thoughts, and possible checking places is much appreciated. I will probably try to get a video of the noise to help you guys help me diagnose the problem at hand.

OP, did you find out what the problem was? I have a clunking noise at low RPM'S. Worse under load but can be heard in neutral. It's a MT, 2008 105k miles

It could be an engine mount, but generally you will get a rattle at idle which will go away when shifted into neutral (if automatic). To rule this out open your hood and have someone look at you engine while you shift from auto to neutral to reverse while stationary. If there is excess movement in the engine than it's likely an engine mount. If you have a standard tranny then you can keep the e brake on tight and do the same thing but shift into first and lightly let out the clutch and give a bit of gas. This creates torque on the engine and you will also have extra play if it's an engine mount.

It could also be an exhaust issue since you're hearing it upon acceleration. Get under the car and move around the exhaust and see if anything is loose or is a hangar is brokenm

Guys, by any chance, did you get this sound regarding your exhaust?

Those links are bad but I looked at your forum. It's not the same sound. The sound I'm getting is a slower vibration and not as high pitched. Yours sounds like an exhaust rattle
