Three Year Limited Warranty
Furman Sound, Inc., having its principal place of business at 1997 South McDowell Blvd., Petaluma, CA 94954
(“Manufacturer”) warrants its SPB-8 (the “Product”) as follows:
Manufacturer warrants to the original Purchaser of the Product that the Product sold hereunder will be free
from defects in material and workmanship for a period of three years from the date of purchase. The Purchaser of
the product is allowed fifteen days from the date of purchase to complete warranty registration by mail or on-line at
the Furman website. If the Product does not conform to this Limited Warranty during the warranty period (as herein
above specified), Purchaser shall notify Manufacturer in writing of the claimed defects. If the defects are of such
type and nature as to be covered by this warranty, Manufacturer shall authorize Purchaser to return the Product to
the Furman factory or to an authorized Furman repair location. Warranty claims should be accompanied by a copy
of the original purchase invoice showing the purchase date; this is not necessary if the Warranty Registration was
completed either via the mailed in warranty card or on-line website registration. Shipping charges to the Furman
factory or to an authorized repair location must be prepaid by the Purchaser of the product. Manufacturer shall, at
its own expense, furnish a replacement Product or, at Manufacturer’s option, repair the defective Product. Return
shipping charges back to Purchaser will be paid by Manufacturer.
THE FOREGOING IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT
NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. Manufacturer does not warrant against damages or defects arising out of improper or abnormal
use of handling of the Product; against defects or damages arising from improper installation, against defects in
products or components not manufactured by Manufacturer, or against damages resulting from such non-Manu-
facturer made products or components. This warranty shall be cancelable by Manufacturer at its sole discretion if
the product is modified in any way without written authorization from Furman Sound. This warranty also does not
apply to Products upon which repairs have been affected or attempted by persons other than pursuant to written
authorization by Manufacturer.
THIS WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE. The sole and exclusive obligation of Manufacturer shall be to repair or
replace the defective Product in the manner and for the period provided above. Manufacturer shall not have any
other obligation with respect to the Products or any part thereof, whether based on contract, tort, strict liability or
otherwise. Under no circumstances, whether based on this Limited Warranty or otherwise, shall Manufacturer be
liable for incidental, special, or consequential damages. Manufacturer’s employees or representatives’ ORAL OR
OTHER WRITTEN STATEMENTS DO NOT CONSTITUTE WARRANTIES, shall not be relied upon by Purchaser,
and are not a part of the contract for sale or this limited warranty. This Limited Warranty states the entire obligation
of Manufacturer with respect to the Product. If any part of this Limited Warranty is determined to be void or illegal,
the remainder shall remain in full force and effect.
A Note On The Current Requirements Of Pedal Effects
Each of the SPB-8/E’s 9VDC outlets has a maximum current rating of 100 mA, yet certain pedals
state power requirements of 200 mA or more. Most of the time, these specifications are more indicative
of a desired level of regulation from a wall wart than an actual
constant current
requirement. Typically,
the actual current draw is no more than 50 mA, so the SPB-8/E’s supply will in fact be more than
adequate. To confirm this, try it! There is no harm in trying one of the SPB-8/E’s 9VDC outlets on
any
pedal or box. If the constant current draw actually exceeds 100 mA, the PTC (solid state fuse) will
shut off, without damage, until the excessive load is removed. If this occurs, simply unplug the device
and use one of the SPB-8/E’s AC outlets with an appropriate wall wart supply. To further illustrate this
point,consider this: If a battery-powered device were actually to draw 300 mA continuously at 9VCD,
it would consume a new alkaline battery every
six minutes
