as “refurbished” have a limited warranty of ninety (90) 
days from the date of original purchase.  Dated proof of 
purchase (original receipt or invoice) will be required for all 
warranty claims.  In the unlikely event that you experienced 
a manufacturing defect or malfunction during the warranty 
period, VM Audio will repair the defective product or replace 
with the same or equivalent product if the same item is not 
available or discontinued.  Replacement product may have 
superfi cial blemishes or scratches that do not affect the 
performance of the product.  This warranty is only intended 
and valid for the original purchaser and cannot be extended 
to subsequent owners.  Any applicable implied warranties

In the case the defective merchandise needs to be returned 
to VM Audio, please contact us and a Return Merchandise

to pack all defective items in the original packaging to
