Guys, u don't need to buy. I don't mind borrow u my unit, once u calibrate ur speaker u hardly use it again. Unless u change the speaker placement. Bought it from Radioshack in US, hardly use. Hope the battery still work. PM me for the details.

I read review Velodyne subs perform very good with movie but mediocre with music. The subs is all about power but not finesse. Owners got any comment?

Wharfy subs cheaper but don't know whether as good as Velo or not.

i'm using Wharfedale - SW150 is a 150 watts subwoofer and for a room of 13 x 9 is good enough. my plaster ceiling shakes everytime i watch movies with very bass. doh.gif

yep, usually they will reduce somewhere around 30% off the market price. this depends on which hot items, got my Integrated amp/CD player last year from the sales and the price is very good. probably direct price, minus the dealer. whistling.gif

bro, i'm using the same front spkr as urs. Diamond 9.4 but i dun think this spkr is wattage hungry. understand that u r driving like -0db on ur amp, something is wrong. shld check ur setting for front spkr, normally like 20db or 17db shld be ok. smile.gif

How's 9.4? Is it a good speaker? For subwoofer setting in your AVR, do u still set your front speakers to small?
*
its ok for me, the reason i bought it is bcoz of its kevlar driver. together with 9.1 as the surr and sw150 as the sub. my setting is set as 'small', unless u r using 9.6. check the spkr manual that comes together with the box. smile.gif

these foreign factories in m'sia (onkyo / yamaha etc) enjoy tax exemption only if they export the products manufactured. For goods sold in m'sia, will definitely be taxed.

unless u r staying in Langkawi and apply for 'tax exemptions' to import this avr. rclxms.gif

Yeah gingerale is correct. However, the 2 cheap opened unit of V1800 is damn worth it imo. I personally didnt checked the condition cos the both unit kena sapu by someone just when the sales is open to public. This is confirmed by Exarkun.
*
only reach there 12.30pm, everything gone. this 2 units that was snapped-up r probably insider people. hv called the office earlier for the price list n they say cannot give. doh.gif now nothing left. last year was better. the discount price for 1800 is still around 3.8K.

check with some sales people n it seems that the reason y they cannot lower the price, is becoz of pressure from HN. rclxub.gif
