Mark; RE: warantee: I'll share a story.

I was in an a/v shop a while ago & a fellow was talking to the rep & he was telling the rep that his pup had chewed on the speaker wires & he heard a ZZZT
noise & replace the wires & the recvr still doesn't work on that channel - reps answer - "no warantee". When the fellow left I asked the rep what if he had just said it is making a wierd noise & left out details?
rep said - "covered".
So I think it depends on BRAND, WARANTEE SPECIFICS, STORE, & LEAVING OUT GRAPHIC DETAILS?
