QUOTE(honda6831 @ Apr 16 2009, 11:19 AM) Dear All, I thought speakers should come with a warranty? Maybe you should email Wharfedale to ask if their warranty covers the woofer (I believe it would). If they say yes then you should confront the shop and ask why they charge u when it's supposed to be under warranty.wanna share here... using diamond 9.5....bought new.... about a month, 1 of the bottom woofer hav crack sound... sent to CMS, replaced new, no warranty one, charged me at RM175.00 recently, watch only 1 movie after replaced the woofer, same replaced woofer crack sound again....sigh.... i need sifus-sifus here advice, i am using ONKYO-606....whats wrong ahhh . .. same woofer spoiled twice, called up CMS, they said no warranty one, have to replace new again at same price...RM175.00 please help... cheers,  Where is this CMS place? |

Any defect not caused by short-circuit, lightning or damage by other source will be repair or rectify free of charge during warranty period. |

speakers with polythene made main drive dont fare so well in our hot n humid weather better get a rubber made ones.. same goes for the tweeter , metal tweeter is better. my first speaker lasts for approx 8 years before the polythene surrounding the main drive started to crack because of the humidity..and the tweeter made from silk attracts fungus!!

Bro, i was quoted RM2.2k here is sarawak for Diamond 9.5 - In your opinion, is this a fair price? or will it be cheaper to buy from you and ship to sarawak?
But in the back of my mind, i think shipping diamond 9.5 here is expensive. Im too greedy, got my speaker already but still love the Warmness of 9.5, my friend is in the market also so im asking for him. |

parts should be a controlled item, it's the workmanship which is the most of all problems, not to mention the QA.

What's wrong with your center speaker? I actually got 1 unit of Mission MH3 Center as I just upgrade to M3C2i. If your room is big, better get a bigger one.
