 Emotiva Audio Corporation Three-Year Limited Warranty

What does this warranty cover?  

Emotiva Audio Corporation (Emotiva) warrants its products against defects in materials and 

workmanship.  This warranty, and all rights provided hereunder, is granted to the original owner, 

and may be transferred by the current owner to a new owner if the unit is gifted or sold. In 

the event the original owner transfers ownership of the Product prior to the expiration of the 

applicable term described below, this Warranty shall terminate at the end of the original term.  
This Warranty only applies to Products purchased directly from Emotiva or any of its Authorized 

Dealers or International Distributors.
Emotiva warrants any replacement product or part furnished hereunder against defects in 

materials and workmanship for the longer of the following: (i) the amount of time remaining 

under the original warranty, or (ii) 120 days from your receipt of the repaired or replaced product. 

The duration described in this paragraph is hereinafter referred to as the “Term”.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES RELATED TO THE 

ORIGINAL PRODUCT AND ANY REPLACEMENT PRODUCT OR PARTS (INCLUDING IMPLIED 

WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) ARE EXPRESSLY 

LIMITED TO THE TERM OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS 

ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO 

YOU.
The original owner must make a claim within the Term of the Warranty. A claim shall not be valid 

(and Emotiva has no obligation related to the claim) if it is not made within the Term and if it is not 

made in strict compliance with the requirements of the “How do you get service?” section.

How long does this coverage last?

The warranty on the BasX A-400Z amplifier commences on the date of retail purchase by the 

original retail purchaser and runs for a period of three years thereafter. This warranty may be 

transferred by the current owner to a new owner at any time during the original term. Emotiva 

warrants any replacement product or part furnished hereunder against defects in materials and 

workmanship for the longer of the following: (i) the amount of time remaining under the original 

warranty, or (ii) 120 days from your receipt of the repaired or replaced product. The duration 

described in this paragraph is hereinafter referred to as the “Term”.

What will Emotiva do?

Emotiva will, at its option, either: (i) repair the product, or (ii) replace the product with a new 

consumer product which is identical or reasonably equivalent (in Warrantor’s sole discretion) to 

the product. In the event Warrantor, in its sole discretion, is unable to replace or repair the Product 

or it is not commercially practicable to do so, then: (i) if the claim was submitted during the first 

365 days of the Term, Warrantor shall refund to you the purchase price that you paid for the 

Product; and (ii) if the claim was submitted after the first 365 days of the Term, Emotiva shall issue 

you a credit equal to the purchase price that you paid for the product. The credit may only be 

used for the purchase of merchandise from Emotiva, and cannot be used for freight charges.
