I will power the sub with the amp, also i intend to put the sub under one of the seats. Is it a good idea to put the sub under the seat?

JVC KD-AVX44 is a new HU in the market which I bought recently and is pretty good with almost all the latest features in it. More details in my thread

Other than this, there are some good Alpine HU's also. Search the forums. You will be able to get some info on these.

If importing I would import HU, AMP and not speakers and woofers. As the weight of the speakers will attract freight. As when I had imported my subs (IDMAX) I had to give approx Rs 10000. But still they costed cheaper when compared here.

Choose the components wisely. Do not go with other recommendations. First listen then buy.

Cool. but i guess HU can be imported easily, even without listening, woofer i can pick it up from Driven, which HU with USB will be a decent buy under 10k?

Stay away from it. There are better products in the market.

You could buy the 6050 in India for around 9k.

If your buying in the USA and willing to look beyond the big three (Sony,Pioneer,Alpine) check out Clarion!

I would not take it that way. I would suggest to go to few shops listen to few HU`s like Pioneer, Alpine, Kenwood, Panasonic etc then decided. Check out there features, menu, looks also.

That is true but importing will save me some money, Gurus here must be knowing which are the best models to choose from. Please throw some light.

Models change from time to time and every person has a different opinion's. So go to a car accessory shop you know and try the few models and order them from US.
