ckf8829, after studying their company profile, looks like they focus on renting equipment to SMEs. I assume small business like personal AV equipment doesnt interest them and when walk in customer just happen to enquire about a price, they mark it up extremely high. A fool like me who doesnt know anything get conned easily by the sweet talk and lies.

At first I thought places like Harvey Norman is expensive and price are not negotiable. Thats why I try small shops where you can negatiate price. But now I learned that atleast places like Harvey Norman are honest and they have no reason to sell you equipment that are other people rubbish. Also their prices are not simply mark up as they see fit and are controlled by manufacturer.

Future equipments I will buy at Harvey Norman and will not pay too much attentions to their price that are slightly a bit high. I am willing to pay slightly higher to be happy, unlike now, so frustrated and cant do much about it except ranting here.

Places like Harvey Norman and Desa keeps much stock on HT gears, and their prices can be relatively cheap as they cater to both spectrum of the public, the general public who wants value for money products and brands, as well as elites who wants performances over cost.

I strongly recommend HN and Desa to audition their stuff, and they can usually point you to a good system that fits your budget.

Too bad u learnt your lesson so painfully, but at least you have shared your experiences with others to skip this outlet.

PS. On the sub cable, you can try moving your existing RCA cable away from other cables/wires to see if you can remove the hum. I wont be surprised its the sub itself thats humming as its showing its age?? I would not get a RM100 Monster cable to match your sub, unless you are planning to upgrade to something much better in the near future.

Thanks Poadster and Edify for your advice. I will give it a try.

Anyway, this is the rear view of my amp.

Eh... it looks like a Yammy V365.... 2 hdmi in....

Anyway... on the left of yr front speakers connectors is the sub output (in black), and its a RCA jack. Simply use any RCA - RCA cable will do.... even those red/white/yellow ones.... no need to get Monsters... unless u wan to la...

I will take one color, then strip them apart from the others, and use that to connect the AVR to the sub, into the low level input of yr sub. Just make sure its long enuff to clear the other cables/wires, and that they dont cross any power cables... u may get a hum that way....

Hwoarang45, are you sure we can do that? I thought we need the vendor themselves to actually cancel the card charges from their own machine. Otherwise everyone will be swiping and then call up to cancel it soon after the purchase. tongue.gif

Currently I am using RCA cable as I am having difficulties finding a better shielded cable. Most of the electrical shops selling Monster cable only. Need to find time and go Pasar Road. biggrin.gif

You can try the Consumer's Tribunal, just bring yr receipt and lodge yr report there, under false and mis-representation. As per yr case, its shld be pretty easy for u to get a full refund from them... go teach them a lesson....

Link to Consumer Tribunal website here.

I cant see anything behind the sub. I only saw a sticker which was half torn off and I couldnt make out full serial number, not even the model name.
Yup, I guess majority of my frustration is because I was duped into buying something that is not what I was told by the SA and then after I complained, the supervisor did not offer his words of comfort, instead argue and scold me for complaining. Performance wise should be ok for beginner like me.

Bro, at the end of the day, it depends on whether you are happy or unhappy with the final transaction. If u r happy (like aquest), then just enjoy the ride.

However, if you are unhappy, then talk to the Consumer Tribunal and lodge a complain with them. They usually will take up cases like urs and let them get ur money back, and while waiting for it, u can hunt for better subs.

U do sound very sour over the experience, then let the Consumer Tribunal take action, and the whole company (including the HQ ppl) will know that the outlet just met a customer who knows their right, and can teach them a lesson.

No point in sitting on the fence, take action or just enjoy it, the choice is yours to make.
