I got this Anker 100W GaN charger from a friend who visited the US. It was mostly future proofing for my next gaming laptop, but it is already a life changer. I charge my Dell work laptop, home laptop and Samsung phone (Super fast charging) with it already. Amazing little thing. Has two USB C and one USB A ports.

@alekhkhanna it's only been a couple of hours since the connection was activated but seems to have the usual caveats wrt to speeds and site blockage compared to Airtel and some extent Jio knowing that Jio goes the extra mile to piss you off.

There are 10inch woofers placed at the side. (Not in the images), This does goes low... Low enough to avoid a sub!

I'm still getting a Polk HTS 12 sub though. Once a bass-head, always a bass-head haha.
The speakers do bass very well yes although at lower volumes I feel the need for that extra punch, at least that's how it sounds in my room with limited placement and listening position options.

I had posted the following in the HFV forum, forgot to copy here...

Well I'm not sure how to put it in words but it reminds me of when I first tried a good set of senheisser earphones many years ago.

You hear notes and instruments that you never heard before from the same tracks, but with the added benefit of the bass response.

I did anticipate this as it might not comply with the fletcher munsen curve. We asked Amit to make it dual posted, so that we can control amplitude between woofer and midrange. It is possible by him, but it is a customisation he undertakes based on the situation.
adding a sub will certainly work, but ensure your crossover points are set correctly,else you run into the risk of boomy bass

@thirumalkumaran what do you mean by "padding a sub"? To avoid risk of boomy bass, is my presumption correct that the crossover freq should be as low as enough to make it clean and tight thumps?
But I dunno... If the Achals bass response is less at low volumes (me listening to music while sleeping overnight) then crossover setting I'll need to experiment with different tracks to arrive at the right number. Not necessarily on the lower freq side.
