Our repair process summary:

All modules are subject to a flat rate repair which replaces PCB and electronic components reusing the mechanical and electro-mechanical parts and is provided with its own warranty. Typical cost is 1/2 of a new module.
The entire repair process takes approximately 1 - 2 weeks from receipt of your module. Should you decide not to repair the module, there is no charge except for return shipping. Please advise us if you are off the air as we give priority to those customers.
We require customers to obtain an RMA before submitting their module for evaluation. You will need the serial number of the module, which can be found in these locations
• Gold top 300/500/700 Watt Modules: Input plate below BNC connector and / or on the identification label on top of the module. This will be a 4 digit number or 5 - 6 character identifier starting with 'D'.
• Blue Modules: Small sticker on input end plate or on top of lid close to input connector - 4 digit number.

Please use the RMA form as above. Amplifier rebuild costs will vary depending on the number of damaged transistors and damage to the digital and analog control circuits.
