I have had a few products back to the manufacturer for different reasons. Some companies have been fantastic to deal with while others have been a disappointment. Sota was so good I couldn't believe it. Aragon was almost as good. What companies have you dealt with that provided exceptional service?
Atma-Sphere Music Systems, Ralph Karsten & Associates Marigo Audio Lab, Ron Hedrich Tri-Planar, Tri Mai Zcable, Mark Hampton
Although my contact with David Elrod of Elrod Power Sytems has been limited, I suspect he is in the same league as those mentioned above in terms of exceptional customer service and passion for his craft.
Time to add another name to the list. I just received a replacement top cover for my Meridian 508.20 from Meridian & you would've thought they packed a CDP! Double boxed, metal part in a heavy plastic bag, plexiglass top in a separate foam wrap, both pieces in about 15' of bubble wrap & all the empty spaces filled in w/packing peanuts. All that & once I faxed the info in only 3 days for delivery. (from Atlanta, not the UK)
I'm pretty sure this is the same packaging used from the UK to send to Atlanta & then to me, but sure was nice to see this level of shipping quality on a part that cost under $100.00.
XLO Electric. I purchased used pair of signature Interconnects which developed a intermittently loose connection inside the RCA plug I called XLO they instructed me to return the cable for repair which they would cover under warranty. I didn't expect to be covered by warranty. Cable returned three days later sounded great again.
All three of these companies have been very good to me on customer service matters.
Sunfire - They replaced a Theater Grand II I bought with a brand new one with full warranty, when I bought it from a grey marketer who was pretending to be a certified dealer.
Legacy - They worked with me to get my Classics sounding good in my room, even though I bought them used.
Acoustic Zen - They did a repair on some of my cables without charge even though I bought them used.
