BassBomb™ Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Ok so heres the problem, I live in South Africa /end no but seriously. i have roughly 2.5K US $ with the current exchange rate for a nice car audio system, i have purchased an aftermarket H/U with 3x preout @4v so thats out the way. my problem is shipping. i was quoted over $1000 to ship 2 AQ subs down here (thats shipping alone) so i searched some more i found out i can ship my whole system from the US amps, alts, subs, batts, etc. through freight shipping for only 500 $ but 2 problems arise, it will take 30 days to get here and apparently import duty will be at 106% 0_0 So now im stuck. Locally the best they have here is Sony Xplod and other crap. i have found though a Pioneers TS-W5102SPL for $687 but thats not really what i had in mind. iv heard their not that great, i could be mistaken. i was hoping for 2 AQ HDC3 15's with AQ amp. i could go with the pioneer but that doesnt sort out Amp, batts or alt. Amp i could maybe scrounge for something possible maybe worth buying. but AGM batteries here are WAY over priced and H/O alts are no where to be found. So please if you have any advice at all in terms of shipping or places i could look anything, i would be very grateful! Regards, Alex inb4 move to the US i would if i could Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you ever come to the US to visit or anything? May be easier just to do that & bring it back with you on the flight But I wonder if a European dealer would be able to work better with you (finding a good company from over here that deals in the UK/Europe.
