www.svsound.com and www.hsuresearch.com would be the places to start  Unfortunately, I don't know that either will be readily available to you in Dubai.

I live in Dubai, and SVS only exports the PB10-ISD, PB12-Plus, and the PB12-Plus/2 I think.

Are those particular models that much more expensive there? Does the 12 Plus not work for you?

What do you guys think of the Klipsch RSW-12? How does it compare to the SVS PB12-Plus?

Not even close. What brands might you more easily get there?

Sunfire, Velodyne, SVS (but only three models that I mentioned above), Klipsch. There are more but I would like to stick to these.

Out of those left, I'd say something from Veoldyne.
