It seems that you can get better price from the Amcorp Mall branch laugh.gif

Ha! Ha! That's what I heard from this forum. He! He! He!
Anyway, my friend knows A&L in SG Wang. And when I asked him to give me a price, the salesman called me and offered me CHT12R for RM2600. Ha! Ha! Ha! So, called my friend, screwed him... and then, he sms me back say the salesman can sell it at RM2250 for me with the sub cable. Ha! Ha! How true? I donno... wait till I buy it first.

s6xs9x,
Price checked: Velodyne CHT-10R ~RM1800 (new stock will be in on the 18/08/08 but not sure will on time or not)
                      Paradigm PDR10 RM1600 (Best price at Asia Sound by Michael Ong)

According to the A&L sale person, the new stock for Velodyne CHT-10R might or might not be at RM1800 cause very much depend on the price increase by the manufacturer. However, he mentioned to me that A&L Malaysia already requested the manufacturer not to increase the price. So, this price will be a reference for all those who wanna get this 10R baby (at least you can use this price to bargain more).  thumbup.gif

All the best to you s6xs9x in chosing your Sub lo ya...if this CHT-10R really sell at RM1800 then better go for velo baby o...just top up another RM200 only (try to get the Sub cable also) k...  thumbup.gif


Added on August 12, 2008, 11:31 pm
timothyy, go for 12R if you have the budget since currently no stock for 10R. I got my Velo CHT-12R just now togather with "audioquest CinemaQuest SUB-A" subwoofer interconnect which was 3 metres long at the price of RM2450.  rclxms.gif

If you wanna buy it then need to be faster lo...cause even this 12R baby is selling fast now, I saw there was another two more 12R babies left there after I got mine.  drool.gif

Wish you luck 1st ya timothyy  thumbup.gif
Hmmm....
Hopefully still got la. Now I am outstation... coming back Sat.

timothyy,

ermmm i thought you made a bunch of friends here ,, do we get special pricec as well?

Sorry man.
According to Ah Hong, the salesperson, he say their stock left 1 unit only. How true, I donno.
But also, he didn't want to give me the price until I showed him the sms my frind sent me. Then, straight he took out their price list, showed me their Distributor Cost price and agreed the price...
Anyway, for info, only about 15% cheaper than what you guys paid for.

Ha! Ha! Ya... I think you all are getting crazy over bass. Hey... there are more than sub in any movie la. Kekekeke...

Anyway, that is a nice SVS. Really would love to test it out and see what is so great about it compared to any normal cheap sub good bass subs.

Well, I guess my new CHT12R will be more than enough. When tested it in A&L, their plster ceiling already trembling. I don'twant my plaster ceiling to follow and got cracks all over after 1 week. He! He! He!

Try getting Auralex Subdude or Gramma. They work very well to isolate the sub / speakers from the surface they're sitting on, so you will get to blast louder and at the same time minimize rattling and scaring your neighbours. There is a local dealer in Tmn Tun Dr. Ismail. I bought the MoPads from them and it worked wonders.

Alternatively you can also DIY by using high density foam... and should be very much cheaper.
