12. Returns Policy

All of our products are thoroughly inspected and tested prior to being shipped and as such we will be very surprised if you are unhappy with any of our products.

We ask that you thoroughly check over the physical condition of the item upon delivery, as returns requests for physical defects will only be accepted within 3 days of receiept of delivery by the customer. For any loudspeaker, compression driver or electrical issues we will accept returns requests up to 7 days from receipt of delivery by the customer. Please note, we may ask for pictures to prove an issue exists.

If you are unhappy with your product outside of the laid out time constraints but feel you have a valid reason to request a return, please get in touch and we'll do our best to help you out - please note returns outside of the previously specified time frame are at our discretion.

Due to the nature of working with delicate speaker drivers with specific power handling tolerances, we unequivocally reserve the right to refuse a refund on any drivers we think have been damaged or 'blown' due to customer misuse. The final decision if such an issue arises is to be made by PCH AUDIO.

The process for a return / refund goes as follows:

Customer contacts PCH AUDIO within the time frame specified requesting a refund.
PCH AUDIO will reply and may request photographic evidence.
Customers will organize postage / delivery of said item.
Upon PCH AUDIO receiving delivery of the item and being satisfied that it's a genuine problem that hasn't been caused by customer misuse a full or partial refund or replacement will be issued. It is at our discretion to decide what constitutes a ‘genuine problem’.

If we decide that the loudspeaker has been damaged through customer misuse we will only issue a refund for the cabinet,

not the cost of the loudspeaker.

14. Shipping policy

We aim to ship our orders within a maximum of 6 weeks from work starting, NOT after the security deposit is paid.

Often clients are asked to pay the security deposit as early as possible, to secure a position on PCH AUDIO's work schedule and avoid further lead times. PCH AUDIO will individually notify clients of receiving a security deposit and starting to manufacture the agreed upon products.

Please remember that all of our products are made to order. We are unable to give clients a set ‘generic’ lead time as workloads may be high, and we do not always hold stock of all components. Thus lead times are often dictated by our secondary suppliers.

We do however aim to give you our best estimate of the current lead time when we supply you with a quote.

This estimated lead time is in no way a binding or contractual time frame unless explicitly noted in writing by the director of PCH AUDIO.
