Same stuff from Parasound back aways.. It stopped me from buying JC-1 or JC-2 used here.
Later folks say nothing about it anymore on Parasound website.. but forget it. If they just flip back and forth, who knows down the line what the policy will be.
IMO they are shooting themselves in the foot over thier OWn inability to control thier distribution of thier own products.. So they take it out on customers.
Forget it!
I bought Bryston. (which also has a statement that warranty needs the original reciept from authorized dealer.. but at least they will fix stuff..)
