Warranty and Service 

 
 
Both Community and your dealer want to be sure you are happy with your new loudspeaker system. If there 
seems to be a problem of any type with the loudspeakers, the very first step should be to contact the dealer 
where the product was purchased. With the support of the dealer you should be able to determine the cause 
of the problem and obtain the proper replacement or repair part so that a return shipment is not necessary. 
 
If you are unable to resolve the problem with the help of your dealer, contacting your nearest Field Service 
Station or the Distributor for your country should be your next choice.  To obtain the name of your nearest 
Field Service Station or Distributor, please call Community at (610) 876-3400 and discuss the situation with 
our Service Department. We can help determine if it is necessary to return the unit to us for repair or 
replacement. 
 
 

MVP™ Series II Transferable Limited Warranty 

 
Community MVP™ Series II loudspeaker systems purchased from an authorized Community dealer in the 
USA are guaranteed to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 5 years.  The 
loudspeaker and crossover components also carry a limited “NO FAULT” warranty for a period of 2 years.  
The warranty period is determined starting from the date of retail purchase, as noted on the sales receipt from 
an authorized Community dealer.  If the sales receipt is not available, the warranty period begins from the 
date of manufacture as determined by Community.  This warranty applies to the product; therefore, the 
remainder of the warranty period will be automatically transferred to any subsequent owner.  

For complete 

information on the MVP™ Series II Transferable Limited Warranty offered by Community, please 
read the Warranty Statement included with your loudspeaker.
