Warranty terms 

12  year  warranty  for  speakers  and  2  year  war-
ranty for power amplifiers and electronics (from 
purchase date) on materials and work time, with 
the exception of damage caused by incorrect use 
or electrical or mechanical overload. An original 
copy  of  our  invoice  is  required  as  the  warranty 
document.  This  warranty  is  exclusively  valid  for 
speakers,  power  amplifiers  and  electronics  that 
have been purchased from Teufel for private use 
by  end  customers.  The  warranty  is  not  valid  for 
speakers,  power  amplifiers  and  electronics  that 
the end user has purchased from a different dis-
tributor. If the Teufel product is sold on privately, 
the warranty may be transferred to the purchas-
er, providing that the original proof of purchase is 
also transferred.

Returns

Teufel provides an eight-week right of exchange 
or return with reimbursement of the full purchase 
price paid.
The return of individual components from a set is 
only possible if these components are also offered 
for sale separately by Lautsprecher Teufel. If one 
or more components are returned, any price dis-
count given by Lautsprecher Teufel on all compo-
nents in a set as part of the price for the set is 
waived. For the components returned, customers 
shall  therefore  be  refunded  only  the  difference 
between the set price and the purchase price of 
the individual components that they retain. The 
financial outcome for customers is as if they had 
bought the remaining components at the indivi-
dual price from the outset.

You can find more information on the subject of 
returns  on  the  returns  form  that  accompanies 
the delivery or online in the support area of our 
website www.teufel.eu.

If you need to return an item, do not act without 
the prior agreement of Lautsprecher Teufel.

We can only process and accept returns if you 
have informed us first by phone and discussed 
the procedure with us!
