Indian Hi-fi Equipment/Accessories comparable with best in class international products
You'll have to search the forum to find FMs listening impressions on Eight audio.
Found one:
Found one:
Another product from INDIQAUDIO (Indian brand) they call it “Modern Radiogram“ looks very classy & I’m sure it will sound great too like their other products.
Just putting it out there.. while looking for a Power Amp, I only found another dual mono construction amp from an Indian brand..
If you are looking for an affordable Dual Mono Amp, then the Acoustic Portrait Swara Amp (80wpc) is also nice.. especially if you have high sensitivity speakers which dont really need 200wpc.

I think 200 Watts Power Amp does wonders here for more clarity and detail .It's doubtful 80 watts RMS power Amp may give such clarity in detail.
In my setup also i can feel more difference after adding Emotiva Power Amp!!
@Prodigy
Anyways Nice sound..!! . I think speakers have subs also that's producing great low end?. What's the frequency response you are driving speakers ?.
In my setup felt sometimes little harsh sound!!.

Not sure what is the cost you paid for Emotiva amp but AP also has a hybrid tube amp that doles out 180W and monoblocks that are 300W at just about 1.2L! Given you stay in Bangalore, probably you can request home audition and share your impressions comparing them to Emotiva.
Depends on the application.
If one is using the front speakers as mains in HT then yes, more muscle in the amp is desirable.
For simple 2-channel music listening, lower powered amps will work, if the amp is designed well.
At home, I have amplification from 50-200W rated at 8 ohms (higher at 4 ohms).
Its the lowered powered ones that are better for music, except the AVR.
My main amp is a 55Wpc dual mono built out of a kit. It makes my speakers and ears very happy.

I visited some of the websites of Indian manufacturers which were mentioned in these posts and almost none of them had prices mentioned on the product listings. To me this is a huge deal breaker because pricing is a major factor when purchasing something and in this day and age clients should not have to email or call companies to ask the price for what is essentially a consumer product. We need to have the confidence to display our prices online if we believe our products are truly world class because transparency is very important when selling products which are not widely distributed and limited distribution prevents consumers from doing a price comparison.
This is exactly what they want. If you're willing to pay more for the same product, why would they ask less?
@edjamesx
The Freq response is +/- 3 dB 40 Hz to 20 Khz. The 10 inch bass drivers in semi TL construction is adding a great low end.
Ha ha ha. That’s why on the most HiFi sites, they link it to Whatsaap and say contact us for the best price. .If they display prices, some people will walk off right away seeing the prices
@nikhilblr,
I had a similar thought in my mind too when i visited couple of Indian sites and I had the same conversation with Amit from INDIQAUDIO and his thoughts were that putting prices is not a big deal, but that takes away the ability to interact with people and understand their requirements, what is catching people's attention, what is preventing from buying - is it the price, configuration, brand etc. This domain is so extensive that many times people don't know what they are getting into. So by not putting the prices company wants to get connected with the people.
I was told, this is the precise reason why they are not selling online.
Moreover, As per them it is not about selling their products, it is about selling the right product either from INDIQAUDIO or telling potential people what to buy from any other brand.
I have an example, I was looking to sell my ELACs, but he insisted me to bring them for A/B testing with his Mishra's.
If ELAC's were a mistake, he did not want me to commit another one by buying thier's without proper comparison. I will soon publish a 4 way comparison between Polk S15, ELAC B6.2, Platinum and Gold Mishra's which we did few days back.

Possible (positive) reasons:
- Customisation
- Opportunity to engage with, understand, and inform the customer
- To dissuade price-driven decision
Most of the Indian manufacturers are either artisans or small entrepreneurial businesses. They might not want to build scale through standardised products. The ones displayed on the website might be more to give the buyer an idea of the features. It’s possible that they find it fulfilling to actually understand your needs and provide you an appropriate solution (instead of selling standardised off-the-shelf product). That’s been my experience with Lyrita. Other FMs have had similar experience with some others. I’d surely value a designer/manufacturer who is willing to spend time discussing with me my needs, his offerings and the best possible solution.

Finally found some time to post the the 4 way comparison.
www.hifivision.com
A face-off between ELAC B6.2, Polk S15, INDIQAUDIO Gold Mishra, and Platinum Mishra and a peek into their Custom L&R.
Post picking up the Platinum Achal Towers, Platinum Saptak Power amp, and Yamaha WXC 50, My 2-channel requirement was over and I was looking at upgrading speakers on my HT setup. My current HT Set Up is quite basic and don't have anything fancy. I have the Elac Debut B6.2 as LR and Polk’s S15...

If any company/product/manufacturer thinks and honestly thinks that the price is cost driven and not a rip off, if the price is able to justify value ... they do not get shy away displaying them publicly. It just gives more confidence while contacting, from a sales perspective, it even keeps away the less qualified leads.

@musikcan I've heard this at the Singapore Audio show. - The Rinjani floor standers.
I think these are kits, the vendor was an Indonesian company, the speakers were very very good. This was in a show with the best of audio gear, and I though that these speakers held their own, and offered super value for money
Glad to see that this is available in India, does anyone on the forum own these?
@SachinChavan Great thread!
