specified within this manual.

Service Assistance for the BPA-1

Please note that BEFORE sending your BPA-1 in for repair, you MUST call Emotiva and obtain a 

return authorization (R/A) number. Before contacting Emotiva to begin the R/A process, please have 

as detailed a description of the problem(s) you are experiencing and the conditions under which the 

problem(s) occur. Additionally, please be sure to check the troubleshooting guide in this manual to 

rule out the possibility of something simple you may have overlooked. If you purchased your unit from 

AV123, please contact them for an R/A number. Please remember, this is a complicated product and 

most instances of perceived product failure are the result of improper set up or operation. Emotiva 

and its dealers will help you ascertain whether you have an operational problem or product defect.

Once you have obtained the R/A number, you must print this clearly on the outside of the box so it will 

be possible to determine from whom the BPA-1 came once it arrives. Parcels arriving without an R/A 

number will be refused and returned freight collect.
