SELECT UPGRADE and WARRANTY POLICY

The SELECT is an expensive DAC and the warranty and upgrade details can be very important to you, the customer. Here is how it works:

10 year warranty - if it breaks, we will fix it. You ship it to us (and pay the shipping), and we will ship it back repaired (and we will pay the shipping). If 

we can send parts to our local distributor to save shipping cost we will.

10 upgrade guarantee - You may upgrade the SELECT as often as you like for the difference between the price you paid and the current price. You 

ship it to us (and pay the shipping), and we will ship it back upgraded (and we will pay the shipping). If we can send parts to our local distributor to save 

shipping cost we will.

DATES - From the date MSB ships a SELECT, the ten year clock starts to run. It does not matter if it is shipped to a dealer or customer directly. 

REGISTRATION - This upgrade is transferable between customers but only if the original registration card has been sent in. It is also transferable from 

a dealer to a customer. It would be wise for the dealer to fill out and send in the SELECT registration because customers may forget. But we have no 

way of knowing when the SELECT was sold and who is the original owner if the information has not been supplied. 

DAMAGE - Units sent back for an upgrade or replacement are assumed to be in good condition. There should be no damage besides normal wear and 

tear as would be expected on a product of this price. Scratched, dented or damaged product will be repaired and the cost of the repair will be added to 

your upgrade cost, including ‘free’ upgrades. When you drop it on the floor, a ‘free’ upgrade will not get you a new unit.

RETURN SHIPPING - Shipping the unit back for an upgrade is the customers or dealers responsibility. There are sometimes difficult customs requirements. 

MSB will do our best to prepare the customs forms to minimize import and export costs.
