Not to go off-topic again but I'm really tired of hearing about how "used" equipment shouldn't be covered by warranty because you aren't investing in the company etc etc, which is a bunch of crap. When the amp is originally purchased that investment is put in and as a second-hand buyer you're merely buying that investment. It *should* transfer, the fact that it doesn't is ridiculous.
I love Car audio but this is why I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for high end home audio manufacturers like Bryston that stand behind their product for 20+ years and on.

This is getting out of hand. First thing who have you tried to contact about your blown amps Jalat. Making deals with ED to get your amps fixxed is your fault not Americanbass. The special treatment you talk about is BS how many competitors last season ran AB gear. What you should do is pm Jesse for the right contact info of the person that might be able to help you. Then we have Yuli always talking ish about Americanbass Canada not existing dude just stop its not anyones fault but your own that TF1 did not succeed. The last thing i will say is a shipment of Americanbass parts just came the other day for someone and its not Jesse. Who could it have been for hhmmm.lol

you are a retard. You want manufacturer support then buy "new" from them and pay for their warranty. If your so cheap that you will only buy used then suffer when you have failure. I bought a used amp and it fried so I sent it for repair...you didnt hear me crying. Dont hold the manufacturer responsible for you buying someone elses junk.

Dilatory your point was pathetic at best. That is like buying a 74 Pinto from a guy in a shack and driving up to a dealership and asking for a new transmission under warranty, and getting upset when they don't give it to you.
99% of the time warranties expire you dumbass. Why would any company be obligated to fix something under warranty on a used product without a valid warranty? Now, if he were to, for the sake of argument, buy the amp used and then purchase some sort of warranty from AB, I'm sure it would have been a different story. Or if there was a warranty given to the orginal owner that was transferred to him, then yeah I'm sure it would have been taken care of. But there is no way for the company to track the amp after the original sale. As this was a "competitor's amp", I'd bet that competitor was given a warranty, but after being sold and sold and sold, AB probably has no idea if it is in fact still being used by a proven competitor or just a daily guy. Not to mention AB made no money on any additional sales of the amp after the first, clearing them of any obligation.
Don't get me wrong, while I happen to be jalat's no. 1 fan and believe he hooked it up properly, I also have been told by credible sources that it was heavily used amplifier. While I do believe it would have been great for them to at least get a little help from AB and understand their frustration, I don't believe AB has to fix it for them. Again like buying a car, Toyota has no obligation to change your oil on your 94 Corolla, so you take it to a shop.
And trust me, without the proper paperwork, I would not be able to take my 4B's in for free repair under warranty. Luckily I can't damage them so it's all good. The fact that they stand behind their 20 year old amps as much as they do their 2 week old cables shows that they understand the applications for their products.
Bryston will only warranty Bryston products purchased through authorized Bryston dealers. Bryston products with a date code of 0608 (February 2006) or higher (date code format is "yyww", where "yy" is the two least significant digits of the year and "ww" is the week of the year) must be accompanied by a copy of the bill-of-sale from a Bryston authorized dealer to qualify for warranty service.
NOTE: Products sold prior to February 2006 do NOT require a bill of sale for warranty service.
The warranty is transferable from the original owner to a subsequent owner as long as a copy of the bill-of-sale from the original authorized Bryston dealer accompanies the re-sale. The copy of the bill of sale to any subsequent owner need ONLY include the Name of the Bryston Authorized Dealer and the Model and Serial number of the Bryston product. The warranty will only be honored in the country of the original purchase unless otherwise pre-authorized by Bryston.
Bottom line, he now has two new channels to try if he wants to in order to fix the amp(s).
I love my 4B's but I'll always have a soft spot for my amp in my van because I have a lifetime warranty. My dad bought the Brystons probably a very long time ago so they aren't something I'm going to use too heavily any time soon, but the Ampzilla's are doing well as substitutes.

So far I'm a retard AND a dumbass, I had no idea.
Where did I mention a 1974 Pinto bought from a shack?
You're taking the point I made, making the worst out of it and inferring your own idea of what I meant which simply isn't there, so again, I'm not going to waste my time debating it but I will reiterate it once more just for fun.
What I'm saying is, if the unit is purchased from an authorized dealer the warranty should be guaranteed regardless of who sends it in so long as the other stipulations remain in tact. If you buy an amp that somebody has melted due to their stupidity that you bought out of your own stupidity, of course it shouldn't be covered, but under normal usage the full length of the warranty should be honored regardless of who previously and who now currently owns it.
You may now continue calling me names for no reason other than effect.
