Warranty

The audio equipment we offer is largely vintage, 40 years old or older. Each device is carefully inspected by us, professionally cleaned, and thoroughly tested before it is offered for sale.

Despite this careful inspection, it may happen that a defect occurs upon receipt or after some time. Because of the age of the equipment, such malfunctions can occur unexpectedly and are unfortunately outside our control.

For this reason we cannot provide any warranty on vintage equipment. We understand this can be inconvenient and we think it is important to be transparent and honest about it. Of course, we do our utmost to deliver each device in as good a condition as possible.

All of our products are packed very carefully to prevent damage during transport.
And the products are shipped insured.
