Where are you located? Call Emotiva and inquire about their rates...they are Great people to deal with, as here at Axiom!!!

AVdude,
I ordered the LPA-1 and LMC-1 for a combined $899USD, which was about $950 CAD. Duties, customs, taxes and fees all added up to $280CAD, so I would expect more or less $150 for just the LPA-1 (I believe it is currently selling for around $517USD).

thanks Ravi... it would seem if you can get it delivered to a "ameri friend" across the boarder you could save a bit... I have emailed Emotiva twice now to get an answer about shipping and duties with no reply.. I will give them a call mon if I haven't got a answer from them ..

I am thinking of ordering the Chassis and three EMP-300 top run my fronts.
I was told that multiply the cost by 1.4 - 1.5 and that is about the final landing costs. But, that was also at a time when the CDN was at 64 cents to the USD

2. No DTS ES or NEO on DTS 5.1 sources:
I can confirm this is a bug. If you try selecting either ES or NEO, it reverts back to regular DTS.
Please note that I have made a mistake. You need to have a 6.1 setup in order to initialize all 6.1 modes in DTS, so this is not a bug.

Ok .. here's the scoup.. Electronic Items MADE in the USA are duty free.. Items made outside of the USA are charged 6.5% duty .. Emotiva is made in China so it is chaged the 6.5% .. These number's came from Canada customs and I called Emotiva to find out where they are manufactured..They are great to deal with, calling is the best way to contact them .. it's toll free and if they don't have an answer they will call you righ back when they get one.. I hope this is the new way of doing business on the net .. Axiom and Emotiva are some of the best Internet sellers I have ever encountered..

I think you can also add that shipping from Emotiva will be $70.But .....once it goes to customs UPS brokerage also charges, I think it is $35 plus then SHipping from customs to your home. also the $65.

I only paid an extra $40USD to have it shipped to Montreal.
I think my total bill was very close to $1280 CAD, including shipping, duties, customs, taxes and all that.
