Initial Inspection
Inspect the shipping container for damage. If the shipping container, packing material, Preamplifier
or accessories are damaged or missing, notify your dealer and the shipper (if a claim is to be
made). Note: Many shippers require notification and an inspection within twenty-four (24) hours of
delivery to ascertain the nature of damages incurred.
Your Linestage Preamplifier has undergone extensive performance evaluations, listening tests,
quality control inspections and a minimum forty-eight (48) hour burn-in period prior to shipment and
should be in a perfect operational condition upon receipt. If the Preamplifier does not operate
correctly, please notify your dealer immediately.
We strongly suggest that you save all packing materials. If the Preamplifier is returned to your
dealer the original packing materials must be used for shipment. Neither North Star Design nor the
shipper can be held responsible for damages incurred during transit if the original factory packing is
not used. All factory returns require that a Return Authorization number be issued by North Star
Design prior to shipment.
