The WARRANTY

People are scared of warranties.  Lots of fine print. Months of waiting 
around. Well, fear no more. This warranty is designed to make you rave 
about us to your friends. It’s a warranty that looks out for you and helps 
you resist the temptation to have the friend, who’s “good with electron-
ics”, try to repair your AudioControl product. So go ahead, read this 
warranty, then take a few days to enjoy your new home theater system 
amplifier before logging onto the our web site at www.audiocontrol.com  
and register your purchases.
“Conditional” doesn’t mean anything ominous. The Federal Trade Com-
mission tells all manufacturers to use the term to indicate that certain 
conditions have to be met before they’ll honor the warranty. If you meet 
all of these conditions, we will warrant all materials and workmanship on 
your amplifier for five (5) years from the date your customer bought it, 
and we will fix or replace it, at our option, during that time. Here are the 
conditional conditions:
1. You need to register your purchase with us by going to the 
AudioControl web site (www.audiocontrol.com), click on the “Home 
Theater” tab and then go to the warranty registration department and 
follow the directions. 
2. Your customer must keep their sales receipt for proof of purchase show-
ing when and from whom the unit was bought. We’re not the only ones 
who require this, so it’s a good habit to get into with any major purchase.
3. Your AudioControl amplifier must have originally been purchased from 
an authorized AudioControl dealer. You do not have to be the original 
owner, but you do need a copy of the original sales receipt or invoice.
4. You cannot let anybody who isn’t: (A) the AudioControl factory; (B) 
somebody authorized in writing by AudioControl to service the Savoy 
G3. If anyone other than (A) or (B) messes with your amplifier, that voids 
your warranty.
5. The warranty is also void if the serial number is altered or removed, 
or if your amplifier has been used improperly.  Now that sounds like a big 
loophole, but here is all we mean by it:
Unwarranted abuse is: (A) physical damage (don’t use it to level your 
projection TV); (B) improper connections (120 volts into the RCA jacks 
can fry the poor thing); (C) sadistic things. This is the best product we 
know how to build, but if you strap it to the front bumper of your Range 
Rover, something will break.
Assuming you conform to 1 through 5 (and it really isn’t all that hard to 
do) we get the option of fixing your original unit or replacing it with a 
new one.

Legalese Section

This is the only warranty 

given by AudioControl.  This 
warranty gives you specific legal 
rights, and you may also have 
rights that vary from state to 
state.  Promises of how well your 

Savoy G3

 will work are not 

implied by this warranty.  Other 
than what we’ve said we’ll do in 
this warranty, we have no obli-
gation, express or implied. We 
make no warranty of merchant-
ability or fitness for any par-
ticular purpose. Also neither we 
nor anyone else who has been 
involved in the development 
or manufacture of the unit will 
have any liability of any inci-
dental, consequential, special or 
punitive damages, including but 
not limited to any lost profits or 
damage to other parts of your 
system by hooking up to the unit 
(whether the claim is one for 
breach of warranty, negligence 
of other tort, or any other kind 
of claim). Some states do not al-
low limitations of consequential 
damages.

Failure to register a proper 

warranty information negates 
any service claims. 

The warranty included with 

the unit shall supersede this 
plain-text version if there is any 
inconsistency between the two.
