Power Issues

Q:I just bought a INSPIRE 1394 from (dealer name goes here) in (city and state go here) and I live outside of the United States. I need to service my unit- what do I do?

A:PreSonus has a distributor in almost every country. Therefore, PreSonus does not authorize or condone exportation of any of our products by US dealers. If you have done this and your product has been damaged (more than likely due to voltage irregularities) then you will need to return the unit to the dealer in the United States. The dealer can then return it to PreSonus for a non-warranty repair. After the unit is repaired, the dealer will be billed accordingly and the unit will be returned to the dealer.
