Hi Darshan / Musicmypassion,
Every equipment (110V)will have like this option to change to 240V or only this Sub alone?

Interesting question. Never checked, in fact. I may need to open up my Denon 1912 as well to check this.

Interestingly, if the customs fee (they paid in India) is less than the import fee that they have collected, the difference in amount will be re-funded. However, there is no way we can track this I guess. The refund will take around 90 days' time AFAIK.
Can we compare BIC America F12 to say Klipsch sw450 sub?
The reason is that I had chance to audition Klipsch and it was wonderful , truely room shaker in its class. But when it goes towards finances dealer in New Delhi quoted me 32.5 K INR. Now F12 seems to be good choice and also light on pocket. Now only issue is regarding performance and power. musicmypassion can kindly throw some light ...

Madhu_7 I had on 16th Feb an audition of Klipsch sw350,sw450 at AVO k1/14 Basement CR park , New Delhi. The owner Rajeev Mehna was understanding and was warm in his approach towards me, though I had clearly stated that I am for audition only.
Audition was done for music - Western and Indian apart movie clips were also played. Tried to have same volume level when comparing Klipsch 350 and 450. I had 2 more of my friends so that 3 of us could feel the difference.
Truely Klipsch sw450 outperformed Klipsch sw350. To focus on SW 450 - this sub made the difference to music as well as movies. Bass was tight and powerfull. I also particularly love bass effect. In movies ( Body Gaurd fight scene ) Sw 450 provided that body shaking experience. In music ( like Pitbull, Eagles - Hotel California ) ,by adjusting to right amount of sound level , bass was complemented. There was no boomyness in the sound. Tried and played with LFE and Volume and came out that adjustments need to be done for type of sound you prefer, placement and room properties.
As time and opportunity permits will try to write more on other subs I have chance to feel ( I think its more now to feeling than hearing - a step above ).
Thanks for asking ...

I dont think AVR comes with such option. BIC provides this option since they do not officially exist in other European and Asian Countires. Most of the AVR manufacturer offer their products in European and Asian Countires and so they can offer different models in US (110v) and Asia/Europe (240v)

I own BIC V1020 (Rs.13.5k/-) in my 17' X 11' Room and it can easiy shake my room. I am sure F12 will be monstreous.
Glad u liked the SW 450...
I am having thoughts abt it...
My room is abt 12*10(under construction)...i feel sw 450 would be overkill
