10 Warranty and assistance

10.1 Warranty

10.1.1 Product warranty

Void guarantees its manufactured products to be free 
from defective components and factory workmanship 
for a period of 48 (forty eight) months, starting from 
the date of purchase printed on Void’s (or any of its 
Authorized Dealer’s) invoice to the end customer. All 
warranty repairs and retrofits must be performed at Void 
facilities or at an Authorized Service Center at no cost 
for the purchaser. Warranty exclusion: Void’s warranty 
does not cover product malfunctioning or failure caused 
by: misuse, abuse, repair work or alterations performed 
by non-authorized personnel, incorrect connections, 
exposure to harsh weather conditions, mechanical 
damages (including shipping accidents), and normal wear 
and tear. Void will perform warranty services provided 
that the product is not damaged during transportation.

10.1.2 Return of goods

Goods can be returned to Void only after they have 
been granted a Return Merchandise Authorization 
(RMA) number to be attached to the external packaging. 
Void (or its Authorized Service Center) has the right to 
refuse any returned good without a RMA number.

10.1.3 Repair or replacement

Void reserves the right to repair or replace any 
defective goods covered by product warranty 
at its sole discretion and as it deems best.

10.1.4 Cost and responsibility of transport

The purchaser (or end user/customer) is solely 
responsible for all transportation costs and risks 
associated with sending warranty covered goods to Void 
or its Authorized Service Center. Void will assume full 
responsibility and cover all costs incurred to send the 
goods back to the purchaser (or end user/customer).

10.2 Assistance

All servicing and repairs for Void Bias series amplifiers 
is handled by Powersoft Worldwide. Please follow 
the instructions below in case of any difficulties.

There are no user-serviceable parts in your amplifier. Refer 
servicing to qualified technical personnel. In addition to 
having an in-house service department, Powersoft supports a 
network of authorized service centers. If your amplifier needs 
repair, contact your Powersoft dealer (or distributor). You can 
also contact the Powersoft Technical Service department to 
obtain the location of the nearest authorized service center.

Even though most product malfunctioning can be 
solved at your premises through Powersoft Customer 
Care or your direct knowledge, occasionally, due the 
nature of the failure, it might be necessary to return 
defective products to Powersoft for repair. In the latter 
case, before shipping, you are kindly asked to follow 
step by step the procedure described below:

• 

Obtain the “Defect Report Form” by contacting our 
Customer Care Department via email:  
[email protected] or download the “Defect Report 
Form” from Powersoft’s website  
(http://www.powersoft-audio.com/en/support/service).

• 

Fill out one “Defect Report form” for each returned 
item (the form is an editable tab guided document) and 
save as your name, amp model and serial Number (for 
example: distributornamek10sn17345.doc) providing all 
required information except the RMA code/s and send it 
to [email protected] [email protected] and 
[email protected] for Powersoft approval.

• 

In case of defect reports approved by the 
Powersoft Customer Service Representative 
you will receive an RMA authorization code 
(one RMA code for each returning device).

• 

Upon receiving the RMA code you must 
package the unit and attach the RMA code 
outside the pack, protected in a waterproof 
transparent envelope so it is clearly visible.

• 

Once the unit has been repaired you will be provided 
with a works form which must be forwarded to 
[email protected] and the customer. 

All returning items must be shipped to the following address:
 
Powersoft
Via Enrico Conti, 13-15
50018 Scandicci (FI) Italy

In case of shipment from countries NOT belonging 
to the European Community make sure you have 
also followed the instructions described in the 
document available for download at the TEMPORARY 
EXPORTATION / IMPORTATION PROCEDURE link at

 http://www.powersoft-audio.com/en/support/service.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation and 
continued support as we work to improve our partnership.
