SERVICE
We recommend that if at all possible, a BBE Sonic Maximizer which requires service be sent to our facility in
Huntington Beach, California. We request that a “RETURN AUTHORIZATION” be issued by the dealer from
whom you purchased the unit. If this is not possible, call BBE Sound, Inc. directly at (714) 897-6766, exten-
sion 116 to obtain a “RETURN AUTHORIZATION”. Include a copy of the bill of sale with the unit when it is
shipped to BBE Sound, Inc. so that the service can be expedited.
As the repair turnaround time is minimal, we request that the unit be sent to BBE Sound, Inc. We also need
to add reliability data to our les so that future revision may be undertaken, if necessary, to improve the
product. If unit has been purchased outside the US, please contact your national distributor.
WARRANTY
Warranty registration of the unit to BBE Sound, Inc. is not necessary. It is strongly recommended that you
retain a copy of the bill of sale for future reference.
IT IS THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE END USER TO PROVIDE THE BILL OF SALE OR OTHER
MEANS OF PROOF OF PURCHASE TO VALIDATE THE WARRANTY IF WARRANTY SERVICE IS
REQUESTED.
The BBE Sonic Maximizer is warranted against defects in material and workmanship for a period of ve
(5) years from date of purchase from BBE Sound Inc. or from an authorized dealer. During this period, we
will repair units free of charge providing that they are shipped prepaid to BBE Sound, Inc., 5381 Production
Drive, Huntington Beach, CA 92649. We will pay return UPS shipping charges within the USA. All charges
related to non-UPS shipping, including customs clearance, will be billed. The warranty will be honored for
the longer of either 90 days from the date of any service or the remainder of the original 5 Year factory
warranty.
This warranty will be consider null and void by BBE Sound, Inc. if any of the following is found:
1. The equipment has been physically damaged.
2. The equipment shows signs of abuse.
3. The equipment has been electrically damaged by improper connection or attempted repair by the cus-
tomer or a third party.
4. The equipment has been modied without authorization.
5. The bill of sales indicates that the purchase date of the equipment is not within the warranty period.
All non-warranty repairs are warranted for a period of 90 days from the date of service.
BBE Sound, Inc. is NOT LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Should the unit fail to operate for
any reason, our sole obligation is to repair it as described above. DO NOT RETURN ANY PRODUCT TO
THE ABOVE ADDRESS WITHOUT INSTRUCTIONS AND AUTHORIZATION ISSUED BY THE ABOVE
LOCATION.
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of the BBE Sonic Maximizer is limited to proper cleaning of the unit with mild household
cleaner such as Formula 409™ or Windex™. The chassis and cover are steel nished with a durable poly-
urethane paint, while the front panel is an anodized aluminum extrusion.
There are no user replaceable parts and the unit should not be opened for any reason unless you are a
qualied technician. Calibration should be performed if parts are replaced or if a performance check-out
indicates a problem with calibration. Long term use has shown that over the life of this unit there is little or
no drift of the components in the BBE Sonic Maximizer which would cause a change in calibration. A very
conservative design philosophy has resulted in a piece of equipment which runs very cool and should give
years of trouble-free service.
