Today I gone to inquire about the setup and was not able to resist myself to fit the setup.
I was clear about which Components (JBL 608C) & Sub (JBL 1214) to buy however was not sure if I can get Amp as suggested by Sathee.
From dealer I came to know that Blaupank is closed and its difficult to get exact series. If dealers are having old stock then you are lucky else no dealer will order required system for you.
I wanted to stick to JBL brand and coincidently two dealers suggested to go for JBL 1004 Amp (4 channel).
So below is the setup I finalized:-
Component [JBL 608C] - Rs 5.5K
JBL 1004 Amp - Rs 12K
Sub JBL GTO 1214 (1400 Watt) - Rs 5.5K
Enclosure - Rs 500
Labour - Rs 1K
Wiring/RCA/Spacer - Rs 2500
(Enclosure/wiring/RCA/Spacer price is not exact as I will be getting bill on Monday)
When I checked with JBL distributor he said I will not get GTO 1214 as its stopped and its difficult to get unless if any dealer have it in stock.
I checked with other dealer where I planned to close the deal and he didn't said anything about unavialbility of GTO 1214 as he was very much sure that he will be having with him.
The work started and then news came saying that GTO 1214 not in stock and he checked with shop in Mumbai as well (don't know how much its true). He suggested to check JBL GT5 1204BR speakers of 1100W and not forcing to buy. After fixing comp,Amp,wiring he showed the demo with GT5 1204BR. I read on TBHP that GTO 1214 is good one so I had a deal saying that dealer will try to get GTO 1214 and by that time I can use GT5 1204BR Sub for which I paid additional Rs 1.5K (For Sub GT5 1204BR the dealer quoted price of Rs 8K) and if he unbale to get it and I wish to return GT5 1204BR speaker then he will take it back.
So in all I paid Rs 29.5K (Budget increased from 15K to 30K)
- Now Please suggest whether I should keep GT5 1204BR sub or insist on GTO 1214?
- Any suggestion on keeping bass/treble settings of Amp as I kept the default setting of Amp as dealer was asking me whether I want more Bass etc?
- If I its recommed to go for GTO 1214 then what size and enclosure/cut I should I ask for?
- Is Amp 1004 is costlier or I should had gone for lower range? I am getting feeling that its too costly for the setup I gone for.
I will post the picture tomorrow morning as it was too late to click photo.
