Limited Warranty
Akoustyx products are warranted against defects in workmanship and materials for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of original retail purchase from www.akoustyx.com or from an authorized Akoustyx dealer.
If a defect exists, Akoustyx at its option will either (1) repair the product at no charge using the new or reconditioned parts, (2) exchange the product with a functional equivalent product that is new or reconditioned, or (3) refund the original purchase price. We do not cover normal wear and tear, blown speakers, cut cords, bent audio jacks, scratches, stains, loss, or theft.
This warranty excludes damages that come because of abuse, accident, modifications, or other causes that are not defects in the materials or workmanship of the product. Modification or customization of your Akoustyx product will void this warranty.
No other party is authorized to modify this limited warranty. Your dealer is responsible for any additional warranties.
This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other rights that vary by state and jurisdiction. These rights shall not be affected by this limited warranty. This warranty cannot be transferred or assigned.
How to Make a Warranty Claim for Service
Proof of purchase is required to verify eligibility (Akoustyx order number or invoice number) of your claim.
Warranty claims for service can be made directly to Akoustyx by contacting the Customer Service at service@akoustyx.com. Akoustyx customer service will verify your purchase on record & provide you with a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number which will be provided to you via email with the return address. Return the item in its original package with all accessories intact to the provided return service center.
Once Akoustyx receives your returned Product, Akoustyx will evaluate your claim (typically within 7-10 business days) to determine whether the returned product is defective. If Akoustyx determines that there are no defects found with your returned product or the returned product does not require any warranty service, Akoustyx will ship the product back to you, at Akoustyx’s expense.
If Akoustyx determines that there is a warranted defect in the product, Akoustyx will, at its option, remedy the defect as set forth below in this limited warranty.
Akoustyx is not liable for products that are damaged or lost in transit to Akoustyx service centers. We recommend that you ship your returned products to Akoustyx via a trackable shipment method. Customers within United States are responsible for shipping costs to Akoustyx service centers. Customers outside the United States are responsible for paying customs fees, including, but not limited to, taxes, duties and brokerage.
All products returned to Akoustyx will be subject to review for authenticity. Products determined to be counterfeit will be confiscated and turned over to Akoustyx's legal department for legal action. Counterfeit products will not be returned & will be destroyed and consumers should seek restitution from their original place of purchase.

Product must be returned within thirty (30) days from the date of the original order for a refund.

2. Product purchased from an authorized reseller. Non-defective product must be returned to the original point of purchase. If you purchased a product from Akoustyx through our website, www.akoustyx.com, you may return the product if you are dissatisfied for any reason, and Akoustyx will refund the amount paid for the returned product minus any expedited or international shipping fees.
To expedite your refund, we recommend that you contact customer service by email to service@akoustyx.com & register for a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number which will be provided to you via email with the return address.
