The waiting list for SVS AS-EQ1 is miles long. Heard that it is now til August. I wonder whether I could get it soon if I buy this.

Btw, tested my SVS PC-12Plus for concert. Feels like in concert. I like my SVS PC-12Plus so much.

The REL T1 that I audition is good but somehow during my audition when i bring up the volume, the REL T1 produce "Blat" sound. I guess the very small size of the T1 just could not go very loud. Its good for small size room as the bass is incredible tight but at RM2900 is too expensive considering I can get the SVS PC12-NSD at less than RM4k.

Still trying to solve the shipping issue with SVS.

By the way, Ron of SVS did mention to me that you are going to meet him in Singapore on the 19thJune. He invited me to meet up with him but too bad I'm still working offshore during that time. Hope that you can work out something with him and get the dealership of SVS in Malaysia.

Probably around RM3K - RM3.4k range. Still waiting for final confirmation.

I was quoted d2d from Erik for a PB10NSD and it cost USD500 and d2airport is 310USD.

How do you manage to get a PB12NSD for 3K?
I have to say that these SVS and Velo are completely 2 different categories, I don't think it's wise to make side by side comparison.

How many SVS owners are there in this forum. Anyone in KL? I'm not sure if it's sounding like how it should now at my place.

I don't seem to find anything rattling, in my house. But as I increase the volume, I find it hard to breath and as if i'm being pressed down. So i wrote to them, and here's the reply;

The "harder to breathe" comment makes me think that you're getting lots of deep bass SPL, and that everything is working as it should. It may just be that you’re used to more to more midbass like the ******** is tuned to, and not all scenes have all that midbass. I'll bet the longer you use the PB10 the better it will sound to you ..... and it's sounding just as accurate in terms of what's really recorded (vs. what lesser subs create on their own in terms of boom and distortion).

Would need some opinions on these subs. Anyway I got mine used, hence I'm not sure if it's working correctly or not.

Edited below, it's from their tech support team

Tough to judge what you’re hearing, of course, but one thing I've noticed when folks move to a truly flat, accurate sub like a PB10 is that it initially seems like less bass. If you've had a sub which produces midbass rumble even when it's not supposed to, and has lots of overhang/trailing notes on sounds, then a cleaner sub will sound like it's producing less. Once an accurate, properly calibrated sub is in place, it can take a little getting used to. No idea if that's the case here, but it's fairly common.

I think the USD315 was for KL only. Non KL area is another story.

The expensive cost could probably due to the hefty weight of the unit itself. PC is much lighter.

Yep! and i had another friend to help me check out the sub, as I'm totally blur in this division.
But i have to say it's nothing like a Velo.

I'm still waiting for the reply on whether they can send it to Brunei. I believe there is no tax in brunei.

Are they selling it in Singapore during Ron's visit there? It might be good to get from there then.
