​

This Limited Warranty applies only if you purchased your Newport Plug-in Speaker in the United States and Canada from OC Acoustic’s official stores on Amazon or our online store.

 

Introduction

OC Acoustic provides a straightforward warranty that is processed in the most hassle-free way possible. This limited warranty provided by the manufacturer in no way affects a potential statutory warranty provided by law.

 

30 days Return Policy

When the customer purchases from OC Acoustic’s official stores on Amazon or our online store, OC Acoustic follows Amazon.com’s return policy:

 

  • A new Newport Plug-in Speaker purchased from Amazon.com or our online store that didn't start when they arrived, arrived in damaged condition, or is still in an unopened box can be returned for a full refund within 30 days of purchase.

  • Amazon.com or OC Acoustic staff may test speakers that are returned because they didn't start when they arrived, and impose a customer fee equal to 15 percent of the product sales price if the customer misrepresents the condition of the product.

  • Any returned speaker that is damaged through customer misuse, is missing parts, or is in unsellable condition due to customer tampering may result in the customer being charged a higher restocking fee based on the condition of the product.

 

When the customer purchases from OC Acoustic’s authorized retailers, OC Acoustic follows their policies. Please contact our authorized retailers for more details.

 

Warranty Claims for Quality-Related Issues after 30 days

OC Acoustic warrants that a new Newport Plug-in Speaker will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use under OC Acoustic’s published user manuals for ONE year from the date of original purchase in its original packaging by you. This warranty is collectively referred to as our “Limited Warranty”.

 

For quality-related warranty claims, your Newport Plug-in Speaker will be replaced with a factory refurbished model of equal value when available, otherwise, a new Newport Plug-in Speaker after you return your original unit in either its original packaging or packaging affording an equal degree of protection to our warehouse. The returned product will be in possession of OC Acoustic. When OC Acoustic replaces your Newport Plug-in Speaker, the newly replaced Newport Plug-in Speaker will continue to be warranted for the remaining time of the original warranty period.
