siucsaluki11 Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 how can you guys do such a thing so easily. I understand how to do it, but i mean how can you just go into it like that? Every amp I've gotten (I've gone through 2 blaupunkts, 1 kenwood, an old RF i borrowed a while back from a friend, and now my Hifonics BRZ1700.1D) has had a sticker on the part you would take off to show off the amp guts that says in usually bold red writing, WARNING, WARRANTY VOID IF SEAL IS BROKEN or something along those lines. Now, I've never had to warranty an amp till....a few weeks ago when my first BRZ shit out on me, but had i done something like that, i would have been shit out of luck. How can you guys justify saying fuck it, ill hope this doesn't shit out on me and have to be sent in for warranty?

HunterJohnson Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Max gain and bass boost ftw lol. My skar amp didn't have a warranty void, but all I'm not going to mess with the internals.

siucsaluki11 Posted June 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 The real question is why do you keep blowing amps? I have yet to truly blow an amp...I just bought new ones that were slightly better than the previous ones (RF NOT INCLUDED, IT WAS A LOAN) My kenwood lasted 3 years before it died, and my blaupunks worked when i took them out to put the kenwood in. My BRZ had a short somewhere in on the board according to customer service. My alpine 4ch that just died is 4 years old now. So i don't keep blowing amps, stfu and post something relevant. Max gain and bass boost ftw lol. My skar amp didn't have a warranty void, but all I'm not going to mess with the internals. No, gain is never past 1/3 and bass boost is always turned off/all the way down, i don't intend to mess with the internals, but i don't want to void the warranty on my BRZ i just got back either. The real question is why do you keep blowing amps? Prob running it @.5 with no electrical upgrades nope, never ran an amp below 2 ohms in any of my setups, so guess again.

8ight Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 If you buy higher end stuff from less known brands you usually don't find those stickers. I've never had them on any amp I've owned, my Cadence doesn't have one nor do any of my new and old Soundstream Reference amps.

SojiaRaggs9000 Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 (edited) Most the amps I see people doing plexi backs/fronts to don't have a void sicker on them in the first place. Take my DC 2.0k for example.

siucsaluki11 Posted June 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 only ones I've had i would want to have been the RF, but it wasn't mine, and it was a decade old, so it wouldn't have mattered, and my current BRZ, which i wouldn't mind taking a look at its guts anyway.

diatribe Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 The first thing I do when I buy a new amp is crack it open and take pics of the internals. If one ever dies on me I will send it in for repair regardless of what the sticker says. I think the real issue manufacturers have is when consumers make changes to the components.

Chad Wilkins Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Its a valid question. I have amps here exceeding the 20 year old mark, never died.. You are doing something very wrong... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
