Defective Items (Warranty Repairs and Guarantees)

Please carefully read all manuals supplied with an item before you report it as faulty. There may be a relevant function that is not immediately obvious. Carriage charges are payable for any item found not to be faulty.

Please note that Warranty provisions do not cover normal wear-and-tear or consumable items such as DJ mixer cross faders, turntable style or recordable media. Loudspeakers and power amplifiers are not covered by warranty if overdriven or misused in any way. Please note that some manufacturers advertise peak power figures rather than the more useful RMS or continuous power.

Some manufacturers may not cover consumable components and spare parts such as batteries, fuses, drivers etc. under warranty. For more information please contact us using the details below.

Unwanted & unsuitable goods

If, on inspection, unwanted goods are found to be used, incomplete or marked, we will contact you to discuss a partial refund or shop credit.

Within 28 days from receipt of goods

If upon return to Studiospares an item is inspected and agreed to be faulty, at the discretion of Studiospares a replacement or refund will be offered. Collection of faulty goods can be arranged with Studiospares returns department. Goods must be returned as new, complete with all accessories including manuals, cables and software in the original packaging. Supporting paperwork in the form of a note explaining the suspected problem, and the Studiospares invoice or packing slip must be included. Goods must be protected for transit by a double box or cardboard outer. Please note that replacements or refunds are not able to be processed unless these procedures are followed. Please note that no liability will be accepted for goods returned without original packaging.

 

After 30 days and before one year from receipt of the goods

If a fault develops during this period, Studiospares Europe Ltd Returns Department should be notified of your intention to return the equipment. Goods must be returned in original or as good as packaging for warranty repairs to be considered. Please note that no liability will be accepted for goods returned without original packaging. If upon inspection, the fault is found to be outside of the manufacturer's warranty conditions, a charge will be made for diagnosis and return carriage.

 

After 12 months from purchase but still within the manufacturer’s warranty

Some (not all) manufacturers provide a warranty which is longer than 12 months. Please check manufacturer websites for information on their UK warranty. If a unit fails within the manufacturer’s warranty but outside the 12 month warranty offered by Studiospares Europe Ltd, it will still need to be returned to Studiospares for testing and forwarding to the relevant service department. In this instance, it will be the customer’s responsibility to arrange safe delivery to Studiospares.

 

Out of Warranty Period - Repairs

We regret that at this time Studiospares Europe Ltd are unable to organise out of warranty repairs.

 

Loudspeakers and power amplifiers are not covered by warranty if overdriven or misused in any way.

We are not authorised to confirm the status on overdriven loudspeakers and amplifiers, this will be down to the suppliers’ service centres digression.

An out of warranty status may apply after inspection for such items; full costing will be applied for the return or repair of the item.
