Symetrix, Inc. expressly warrants that the product will be free from 
defects in material and workmanship for two (2) years from the date the 
product is shipped from the factory. Symetrix’s obligations under this 
warranty will be limited to repairing or replacing, at Symetrix’s option, 
the part or parts of the product which prove defective in material or 
workmanship within two (2) years from the date the product is shipped 
from the factory, provided that the Buyer gives Symetrix prompt notice 
of any defect or failure and satisfactory proof thereof. Products may be 
returned by Buyer only after a Return Authorization number (RA) has 
been obtained from Symetrix. Buyer will prepay all freight charges to 
return the product to the Symetrix factory. Symetrix reserves the right

before repair or replacement is carried out. Symetrix may, at its option, 
require proof of the original date of purchase (dated copy of original 
retail dealer’s invoice). Final determination of warranty coverage lies 
solely with Symetrix. Products repaired under warranty will be returned 
freight prepaid via United Parcel Service by Symetrix, to any location 
within the Continental United States. Outside the Continental United 
States, products will be returned freight collect.

The foregoing warranties are in lieu of all other warranties, 
whether oral, written, express, implied or statutory. Symetrix, Inc. 
expressly disclaims any IMPLIED warranties, including fitness 
for a particular purpose or merchantability. Symetrix’s warranty 
obligation and buyer’s remedies hereunder are SOLELY and

Symetrix expressly disclaims 

all implied warranties, including but not limited to warranties of 
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.

This limited warranty, with all terms, conditions and disclaimers set forth 
herein, shall extend to the original purchaser and anyone who purchases 
the product within the specified warranty period.
Symetrix does not authorize any third party, including any dealer or 
sales representative, to assume any liability or make any additional 
warranties or representation regarding this product information on behalf 
of Symetrix.
This limited warranty gives the buyer certain rights. You may have

this warranty.

Limitation of Liability

The total liability of Symetrix on any claim, whether in contract, tort 
(including negligence) or otherwise arising out of, connected with, or 
resulting from the manufacture, sale, delivery, resale, repair, replacement 
or use of any product will not exceed the price allocatable to the 
product or any part thereof which gives rise to the claim. In no event will 
Symetrix be liable for any incidental or consequential damages including 
but not limited to damage for loss of revenue, cost of capital, claims of 
customers for service interruptions or failure to supply, and costs and 
expenses incurred in connection with labor, overhead, transportation,

Servicing Your Symetrix Product

If you have determined that your Symetrix product requires repair 
services and you live outside of the United States please contact your 
local Symetrix dealer or distributor for instructions on how to obtain 
service. If you reside in the U.S. then proceed as follows:

Return Authorization

At the Symetrix factory, Symetrix will perform in-warranty or out-of-
warranty service on any product it has manufactured for a period of 
three (3) years from date of discontinued manufacture.
Before sending anything to Symetrix, please contact our Customer 
Service Department for a Return Authorization (RA) number. The 
telephone number is +1.425.778.7728. Additionally, support is available 
via the web site: http://support.SymetrixAudio.com.

In-warranty Repairs

To get your Symetrix product repaired under the terms of the warranty:

1.  Call us for an RA number (have the serial number, shipping and 

contact information and description of the problem ready).

2.  Pack the unit in its original packaging materials.
3.  Include your name, address, daytime telephone number, and a brief 

statement of the problem.

4.  Write the RA number on the 

outside

 of the box.

5.  Ship the unit to Symetrix, freight prepaid. We do not accept freight 

collect shipments.

Just do these five things, and repairs made in-warranty will cost you only 
one way freight charges. We’ll pay the return freight.
If you don’t have the factory packaging materials, we recommend using 
an oversize box. Wrap the unit in a plastic bag, surround it with bubble-
wrap, and place it in the box surrounded by Styrofoam peanuts. Be sure 
there is enough clearance in the box to protect the rack ears. We won’t 
return the unit in anything but Symetrix packaging for which we will have 
to charge you. If the problem is due to operator misuse or error, you will 
have to pay for both parts and labor. In any event, if there are charges 
for the repair, you will pay for the return freight. All charges will be COD 
unless you have made other arrangements (prepaid, Visa or Mastercard).

Out-of-warranty Repairs

If the warranty period has passed, you’ll be billed for all necessary parts, 
labor, packaging materials, and freight charges. Please remember, you 
must call for an RA number before sending the unit to Symetrix.
