LOUD Technologies Inc. warrants all materials, workmanship

Technologies, at its option, will repair or replace the product.
This warranty applies only to equipment sold and delivered
within the U.S. by LOUD Technologies Inc. or its authorized
dealers.

Failure to register online or return the product registration
card will not void the three-year warranty.

Service Center (see E below). Unauthorized service, repairs, or
modifi cation will void this warranty.

in the form of a dated copy of the original dealer’s invoice or
sales receipt. Final determination of warranty coverage lies solely
with LOUD Technologies or its Authorized Service Centers.
