Hi
I am planning to pull the trigger on an ICEpower 200AS2 module from SoundImports.eu for a DIY power amp project. Before I proceed, I wanted to check if any members here have recently imported from them to India.
I’ve done a rough calculation of the landed cost to India, but as we all know, Indian Customs can be a bit of a wildcard. I’m particularly interested in your experience with their shipping partner and how the "Assessable Value" was calculated at the port.
Price Breakdown (Estimated):
Product + Shipping: ~180 EUR (approx. ₹16,200). This assumes the module is ~140 EUR.
Customs Duty & Taxes: Estimated at ~31% of the total invoice value (approx. ₹5,000).
Total Landed Cost: ~₹21,200.
Note: This assumes SoundImports deducts the 21% Dutch VAT for an export order outside the EU.
A few specific questions for those who have used them:
Did you face any issues with the KYC process through their courier?
Was the 21% Dutch VAT successfully deducted at checkout?
For those who have built with the 200AS2 or other boards (like Hypex), any tips on housing these to minimize 100Hz hum issues often found in DIY builds?
Looking forward to your inputs and suggestions
Cheers!
