The WARRANTY

People are scared of warranties. Lots of fine print, months of waiting around. 

Well, fear no more, this warranty is designed to make you rave about us to your 
friends. It’s a warranty that looks out for you and helps you resist the tempta-
tion to have your friend, “who’s good with electronics”, try to repair your 
AudioControl product. 

So go ahead, read this warranty, then take a few days to enjoy your new 

LCQ-1 before going on-line to register your unit at www.audiocontrolregistra-
tion.com  We also look forward to your comments while you are registering 
your LCQ-1. “Conditional” doesn’t mean anything ominous. The Federal Trade 
Commission tells all manufacturers to use the term to indicate that certain 
conditions have to be met before they’ll honor the warranty. If you meet all of 
these conditions, we will warranty all materials and workmanship on the LCQ-1 
for one year from the date you bought it (five years if it is installed by an autho-
rized United States AudioControl dealer) We will fix or replace it, at our option, 
during that time. Here are the conditional conditions:

1. You have to go to www.audiocontrolregistration.com warranty and register 

your LCQ-1 within 15 days after purchase.

2. You must keep your sales receipt for proof of purchase showing when and 

from whom the unit was bought. We’re not the only ones who require this, so 
it’s a good habit to get into with any major purchase.

3. Your LCQ-1 must have originally been purchased from an authorized 

AudioControl dealer. You do not have to be the original owner, but you do need 
a copy of the original sales slip.

4. You cannot let anybody who isn’t: (A) the AudioControl factory; (B) 

somebody authorized in writing by AudioControl to service your LCQ-1. If 
anyone other than (A) or (B) messes with your LCQ-1, that voids your war-
ranty.

5. The warranty is also void if the serial number is altered or removed, or if 

the LCQ-1 has been used improperly. Now that sounds like a big loophole, but 
here is all we mean by it. Unwarranted abuse is: (A) physical damage (don’t 
use the LCQ-1 for a car jack); (B) improper connections (120 volts into the 
power jack can fry the poor thing); (C) sadistic things. This is the best product 
we know how to build, but if you mount it to the front bumper of your car, 
something will go wrong.  If an authorized United States AudioControl dealer 
installs the LCQ-1, the warranty is five years. Assuming you conform to 1 
through 5, and it really isn’t all that hard to do, we get the option of fixing your 
old unit or replacing it with a new one.

LEGALESE SECTION

This is the only warranty given by AudioControl. This warranty gives you 

specific legal rights that vary from state to state. Promises of how well the 
LCQ-1 will perform are not implied by this warranty. Other than what we 
have covered in this warranty, we have no obligation, express or implied. 
Also, we will not be obligated for direct or indirect consequential damage to 
your system caused by hooking up the LCQ-1. Failure to register warranty 
information negates any service claims.
