However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
Product Ref: 55229
The Apogee Groove brings professional audio fidelity to a compact, travel-friendly design. Built with high-quality components, it delivers lossless playback with up to 24-bit/192kHz resolution, making it an essential tool for those who need precise audio monitoring. Unlike standard computer audio outputs, Groove maintains the integrity of high-resolution recordings, ensuring a clear and detailed listening experience.
At the heart of Groove’s superior performance is its Quad Sum DAC design, which utilizes four digital-to-analog converters per channel. This approach significantly reduces distortion while increasing the dynamic range, allowing users to hear every subtle detail in their audio. Whether mixing professional tracks or listening to high-fidelity music, Groove ensures a transparent and true-to-source sound.
This technology not only improves clarity but also allows music to retain depth and dimension. Unlike conventional DACs, Groove delivers a more natural and immersive listening experience, making it a must-have for producers, engineers, and critical listeners.
One of Groove’s standout features is its Constant Current Drive technology, designed to improve frequency response across various headphone types. Many traditional headphone amplifiers struggle to maintain consistent performance with different impedance levels, leading to frequency imbalances. Groove eliminates this issue by automatically adjusting its output to ensure accurate sound reproduction, regardless of the headphones being used.
This feature is particularly valuable for audio professionals who rely on different headphones for various tasks. Whether using high-impedance studio monitors or portable in-ear monitors, Groove ensures that every pair delivers its best performance.
Groove’s intuitive design makes it easy to operate, featuring two volume buttons for precise level adjustments and three multi-colour LEDs for real-time status indication. The LEDs display different colours to indicate streaming status, listening level, and playback level, allowing users to monitor their audio settings at a glance. The volume buttons adjust the analog output, ensuring smooth level control without introducing digital distortion. This simple but effective interface makes Groove a convenient and reliable tool for musicians, engineers, and audiophiles alike.
Designed for plug-and-play functionality, Groove connects via USB 2.0 to both Mac and PC without requiring additional drivers. It works seamlessly with major streaming services like Apple Music, Tidal, and Qobuz, allowing users to experience lossless playback effortlessly.
Constructed with a high-quality aluminium chassis, Groove is built to withstand daily use while maintaining a sleek and professional appearance. Its compact size makes it easy to carry, providing high-resolution audio wherever it’s needed. Whether in a studio setting or on the go, Groove delivers uncompromising sound quality in a rugged and reliable package.
