AudioControl ESP-2 Limited Warranty
People are scared of warranties. Lots of fine print, lots of non-cooperation,
months of waiting around. . .
Well don’t be scared of this warranty. It’s designed to make you rave about us
to your friends. It’s a warranty that looks out for you and helps you resist the
temptation to have your friend who is “good with electronics” try to repair your
AudioControl ESP-2. So go ahead and read through this warranty, then enjoy your
new component for a few days before sending in the warranty card and comments.
“Limited” doesn’t mean anything ominous. The Federal Trade Commission
tells all manufacturers to use the term to indicate certain conditions have to be met
before they’ll honor the warranty. IF you honor these conditions, we will warrant
all material and workmanship on your Concert Series ESP-2 for FIVE YEARS from
the date of purchase if installed by an authorized AudioControl dealer, and will fix
or replace it, at our option, during that time. For you “do-it-yourselfers”, we offer
you the same warranty for one year.
Here are the conditions that make this warranty conditional:
1. You have to fill out the warranty card and send it to us within 15 days after
you purchased your ESP-2.
2. You must keep your sales slip or receipt so you have proof of when and
where you bought your ESP-2. We’re not the only company to require this, so it’s a
good habit to be in with any stereo purchase.
3. Your ESP-2 has to have been originally purchased from an authorized
AudioControl dealer. You do not have to be the original owner to take advantage of
the warranty, but the date of purchase is still important so be sure to get a copy of
the sales slip from the original owner.
4. You cannot let anybody who isn’t; (a) The AudioControl Factory; (b) an
authorized service center; or (c) someone authorized in writing by AudioControl,
service your ESP-2. If anyone other than (a), (b), or (c) messes with your ESP-2,
that voids the warranty.
5. The warranty is also void if the serial number has been altered or removed,
or if the AudioControl ESP-2 is used improperly. Now, that sounds like a big
loophole, but here is all we mean by it; unwarranted abuse is: (a) Physical damage
(our mobile products are not meant to be used as jack stands for your car): (b)
Improper connections. We have done the best we can to protect the inputs, how-
ever, 120 volts into the input jacks can fry the innards of the poor beasty: (c)
Sadistic things. This is the best mobile product we know how to manufacture, but if
you use it for the front bumper of your Baja bug and get it full of water and dirt,
things will go wrong.
Assuming you conform to numbers 1-5, and it isn’t all that hard to do, we get
the option of deciding whether to fix your old unit or replace it with a new one.
Legelese Section
This is the only warranty given by AudioControl. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights which vary from state to state. Promises of how well your
ESP-2 will work are not implied by this warranty. Other than what we’ve covered
in this warranty, we have no obligation, expressed or implied. Also, we will not be
obligated for direct or indirect consequential damage to your system caused by
hooking up the AudioControl ESP-2.
Failure to send in a properly completed warranty card negates any service
claim.
