Complaint / Review
Polk Audio Speakers
Will not honor Warranty

I had been seeking to update the speakers in my own vessel. Began with Polk since I've them in my own house, outdoors and preferred the audio. After taking a look at polk I visited infinityis internet view that we also considered applying. Among the viewis present on the website internet sight was Sonic Electronix, Inc. After likely to there internet sight I wound up buying Polk Audio (2-models of DB6501, DB1040DVC and Sub address. Had an issue with among the DB6501 crossovers (Poor mess) and named them.

Since I did not buy them from the approved vendor the guarantee is emptiness. After reading the subsequent number of emails returned and next withe polks customer servise supervisor. Exactly what a laugh of the supervisor.

You realize Eric, I currently understand what a and non-authorized vendor list is. This can assist with any potential online purchases from makes. But when I had been inside your placement that we am, I'd of obtained the full time to find out if it was a original customer that created a mistake without understanding it and provide a-one-period courtesy guarantee to get a $10.00 component and create Polk Audio search great, however, you chose to reduce a person.

Recognized, but when you try looking in the fine-print under, it says in the event that you buy a Infinity item on the web, through mail-order, or from every other supply not approved to market our items, we can not guarantee its credibility, quality or efficiency. Additionally we are not able to recognize the guarantee of any item you purchase from these merchants." Hence Infinity includes a comparable plan as it pertains to purchasing from a certified seller once we along with other producers do.

Although Sonic electronix might be a certified store for Infinity, they're not for all of US. Hence something bought from their store doesn't bring a guarantee.

Dear Friend,

Although I can't speak for Infinity or Harman, audio makes have comparable guidelines on purchasing from unauthorized sellers. I would ask one to have a look as of this site from their website: http://www.infinitysystems.com/home/where_to_buy/default. Aspx? Language=ENG&Region=USA&Country=US

They've a certified sellers listing the same as we do and I estimate:

"there are certainly a quantity of unauthorized websites promoting our items, a number of whom wrongly declare to get been approved by us. There's also unauthorized sellers who consider clients' purchases, cost their charge cards, but don't have our product in-stock to provide. Merely a select quantity of websites have now been approved; under is just a listing of online stores authorized to market our items. Should you create a purchase from the seller we have not approved:

We're not required to protect your purchase under our guarantee. We might not have the ability to assist you to when you have an issue using the unauthorized seller. Perhaps you are investing in a replica of 1 of our items."

Dear Mr. Wong,

You may already know I did so consider your guidance and examined Infinity internet view and unearthed that Sonic Electronix was a licensed vendor (you are able to examine oneself if you want) for Infinity. For the customer support individual to express you've had issues with Sonic Electronix within the pass leaves me to think that you simply were praising there guarantees within the move. When they needed to undergo that I did so today & about five years back having a audio address that keep falling-off as well as your customer support person stated I use it incorrect, I'm sorry for them. I did so contact and they'll look after Polk Audio quality problem. It appears they've been having issues together with your item also. Please be aware I intend on informing my tale on the few communityis about the sad option I created purchasing polk with-instead of Infinity. Yes I also provide Infinity Speakers and like them equally well.

PS, I'll buy from Sonic Electronix again however it won't be Polk!

Hi Howard, Cheers for publishing to us and we truly enjoy your previous company. Be careful with sellers, particularly web sellers, it is vitally important to ensure whoever you're purchasing it from is definitely an authorized dealer. We're not the only real producer that has an insurance policy similar to this, I ask you to check on with different producers aswell and you will notice this is definitely an industry-wide exercise.

This is because, the approved dealers have invested a large amount of effort and time to become approved sellers. They have to move particular quality inspections by us, possess the solution understanding and support abilities to transport, existing and market our products the very best. These unauthorized dealers obtain the product from unfamiliar and unauthorized means, therefore undercutting the legit sellers. Not just that, we don't understand where these "gray-market" products originate from, they may be W-inventory, utilized, stolen and sometimes even cloned.

We do have a certified and unauthorized listing. They may be discovered here:

I simply spook having a woman inside your client service division and discovered

You'll not recognize the guarantee brcause of wherever I buy the Speakers from.

I never heard about a unauthorized vendors list.

The Speakers are fresh and also have the enrollment documents with serial# figures.

The serial number must let you know wherever they originated from.

I looked over a number of your approved vendors and none had anything I

Required and provided a bundle.

I've Polk House, Bicycle, Outside & Ship Speakers and spoke my buddy into

Purchasing them-and all of US like them greatly.

But when Polk Sound ideas on informing me where you can store, I believe its period for

Me and my buddies to alter Manufacturers.

PS: Do Not purchase Polk Sound, better-off with Infinity Speakers simply because they remain behind there item.
