Specialized repair for Universal Audio equipment.

Hanex Service is the authorised Universal Audio service and repair centre for the entire European Union. From our workshop in Leimuiden we support warranty cases, service requests, spare parts and accessories for current and legacy models.

Because we work with Universal Audio products every day, we can quickly help with diagnosis, the right intake route and parts availability. Hanex is the European specialist for Universal Audio repairs and service across the full range.

Prompt Availability of Parts

We maintain a large inventory of common parts, ensuring short repair times.
If a part is unavailable, we have a vast selection of donor devices to help complete the repair.

 

Convenient Pickup Service

We collaborate with various shipping providers and can arrange for pickup of your defective device at your preferred address or drop-off point. You're also welcome to personally deliver your device to our Leimuiden location.

 

Transparent Quotations

For devices outside the warranty period, our technicians will provide a quotation if repair costs exceed a previously agreed limit. You can then decide whether to proceed with the repair. If you choose to have the device repaired by us or leave it unrepaired, the quotation is free. If you prefer to have the unrepaired device returned, a partial cost of €40 (excluding 21% VAT and shipping) will apply.

Frequently Asked Questions:
How do I submit my faulty audio equipment?

You can register your repair through the repair portal. Please provide the brand, model, serial number, a clear fault description and any accessories that are needed to reproduce the problem.

For warranty requests, add the proof of purchase if available. The portal will show which service options are available for your brand, country and device, including shipment, delivery or agreed transport where applicable.

Can I also have an older device repaired?

Yes. Older equipment is often very repairable, especially when the design is solid and service information or suitable parts are still available. Our technicians have many years of specific experience with both analogue and digital equipment.

With older devices we often know the common weak points and recurring faults. That experience helps us find practical solutions, such as alternative parts, revised modules, donor units or carefully selected replacement components.

Is on-site repair possible?

In most cases repairs are handled through shipment, delivery or an agreed transport solution to our workshop. On-site repair is only possible in selected situations and depends on the product, location, planning and technical need.

If on-site service is required, contact us before registering the repair. We will assess whether a visit is possible, or whether diagnosis in the workshop is the better and safer route.

What is the warranty on the repair?

Hanex gives a 3-month warranty on the same repaired fault and on parts replaced by us, provided there is no external cause such as transport damage, moisture, misuse, wear outside the repaired part or a new unrelated fault.

This also assumes that all relevant information was provided during the first repair attempt. If the original fault description was incomplete or later turns out to concern a different complaint, we may need to treat it as a new or additional fault.

Manufacturer warranty is separate and depends on the brand, country, importer and current service agreement. The repair portal and brand pages show the available options for your device.

What if the repair turns out not to be worth it?

If a repair is technically or economically not sensible, we will explain this before continuing. Outside warranty, inspection or quotation costs may apply; the current conditions are shown during registration or in the quotation.

When possible, we also look for alternatives such as revision, a used module, a donor part or another practical technical solution.

Is repair still worth it?

In many cases, yes. Audio equipment and electronic musical instruments are often built well enough to justify repair, especially when the fault can be found at component or module level.

We do not automatically replace complete boards or mechanisms when a targeted repair is possible. With diagnostic equipment, service documentation, manufacturer tools and dedicated test jigs, we can often determine whether repair is still a sensible choice.

What brands can I turn to Hanex for?

Hanex repairs many audio and music technology brands outside warranty. For selected brands we also handle manufacturer or distributor warranty service, depending on the country, importer and current agreements.

Because those agreements differ per brand and region, the most reliable information is shown on the brand pages and in the repair portal when you register your device.
