Malaysian prefer their Hifi to be both articulate, detailed and more refined sound...& LOUD too.

Then, I guessed I aint Malaysian enough sweat.gif

I watched my movie at moderate volume (Old man trying to preserve his hearing) blush.gif My Yamaha ref level is at -8dB. I normally watch movies at abt -22dB (20%) to -26dB (80%). On very few occasions, it hit -18dB mark.

Mine at -8dB

Bro, even same avr but different room size, different speakers, and different in-room freq too. So, diff ref level.

Now, hardly crank above -26dB. When you are free, come over and feel the massive difference between PB-10NSD and PC-12Plus brows.gif

But if I ship via fedex, then I guess i have to pay full tax since they will pay the tax and collect form me.  But if I ship to airport to collect my self, then I think i can "negotiate" the tax with the relevant authority tongue.gif  Maybe htkaki can enlighten us on whether we can "negotiate the tax".  Anyway, my house is only 5 mins from the miri airport.

I paid full tax for it even it is D2A. I thought I have posted it before sweat.gif

Apart from tax, you need to pay processing and documentation fees to logistic co. Abt RM153. Then, with all the documents, you need to go to Custom Building. Go to a section called 'Dagang Net'. Here, you need to fill up a form and declare under tariff code : 851821000 which is for speaker. Here, you need to pay abt RM22+ (4got the amt).

This dept will calculate the amt of tax that you need to pay. Invoice and other documents need to be given to them. Then, they ll print out a tax document.

With this, you need to go to Custom Counter and look for an officer. They will check again and sign on the tax form. After that, you need to go to the counter to pay. I wonder how you can 'negotiate'. Maybe Miri is different or unless you knew someone. I prefer paying it as I do not want any trouble since they have all the details sweat.gif

After paying it, they will give you a copy of it. While exit checkpoint, you need to show the copy and your item for verification. If you declare incorrectly or try to 'cheat', then pandai-pandailah.

I thought you order yours door to door for USD300+?  You mean you want to order again...this time for the Plus?


Wow...that is quite a lot hustle.  So how much tax did you pay in total?  25%?
jwyj is buying PC-12Plus or probably 13Ultra smile.gif

Yes, quite a hassle. 15% + 10%. So, it is more than 25%

IF cheap, are you going to buy for your new elite pad ah, Tun? tongue.gif

Then your Velodyne put in your spacious living hall (not room, mind you) to partner with a gigantic display and another HT setup for your HM to watch Astro thumbup.gif

Tun Mega, abt my SVS PC-12Plus reserved for you, I think better not lah sad.gif

The headroom might be too much for your room. It can hit above 100dB during bass peak scene. That's a massive 35-40dB jump from dialogue scene. Probably a PB-10NSD would hold the job well. I am still trying to get the best setting for my sub. For my room, PC-12Plus is more than adequate. No wonder SVS ppl are very particular in room size before selling it to us.

SVS will not alter the invoice to reflect a lower value for the sub.

jwyj must be enjoying his 2 PC-12NSD in his HT room. No posting from him.

I think the only option is to use courier service to do ship it to Miri albiet a little more expensive in order to get it quick since BAX won't be doing it.

No news, no telephone call from them. Tracking says delivered to KL.  sad.gif  I'm not sure what to do.

Bro, you might try calling them to check. As far as I know from what I'd experienced with them, they need to take 2 days to clear it for me if I request them to do. No shit! If I do on myself for the documentation and declaration, it will take less than 4 hours. That's what they told me.

So, I believe that it might take another few days to reach your doorstep.
