Crown’s Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully Transferable Warranty

Crown offers a Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully Transferable Warranty for every new Crown amplifi er—an unsur-
passed industry standard. With this unprecedented No-Fault protection, your new Crown amplifi er is war-
ranted to meet or exceed original specifi cations for the fi rst three years of ownership. During this time, if your
amplifi er fails, or does not perform to original specifi cations, it will be repaired or replaced at our expense.
About the only things not covered by this warranty are those losses normally covered by insurance and those
caused by intentional abuse. And the coverage is transferable, should you sell your amplifi er.
See your authorized Crown dealer for full warranty disclosure and details. For customers outside of the USA,
please contact your authorized Crown distributor for warranty information or call 574-294-8200.
