• Total Harmonic Distortion (THD): < 0.15%

Warranty:
The audio equipment we offer is mostly vintage equipment aged 40 years or older. Each unit is carefully checked by us, professionally cleaned and extensively tested before being offered for sale.

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

For this reason we cannot provide a warranty on vintage equipment. We understand this may be inconvenient and we think it is important to be transparent and honest about it. Of course we make every effort to supply each unit in the best possible condition.

We package our products very carefully to minimize the chance of transport damage.

We also insure every shipment with a transport insurance.
