A Manufacturer that pays return shipping


Was wondering if anybody knows of a speaker manufacturer that pays return shipping on warranty returns I know sometimes the cost of the shipping exceeds the value of the repair which doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me

The reason I was asking is because I recently had this experience with Martin Logan one of the speakers no longer has any output and although its still under warranty I am responsible for the shipping charges to return the speakers and after looking at other speaker manufacturers warranty policies this seems to be normal I was thinking about a pair of Axioms until I found out they had the same policy and they're a Canadian manufacturer I can only imagine what costs would be to ship a speaker to Canada seems to me if they believed in their product they should back it completely
Some manufactures have regional representation for repairs to help cut down on shipping cost. Ak ML is there are any authorized repair facilities closer to your home.
I was in touch with one of Martin Logans techs who was very nice he even sent a new crossover to see if that would solve the problem which it didn't so ultimately there was no other choice but to send them back to the manufacturer since there are no Martin Logan service outlets which ended up costing me almost 200.00 a hard pill to swallow when the value of the speaker is only 650.00 something I'll consider a lesson and in the future wont be purchasing another pair
