Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2025
The short version
Some links on Soundorabilia are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you. This is how we cover the cost of buying, testing, and writing about the gear we recommend.
Affiliate commissions do not influence our recommendations. We only link to products we have personally used, heard, and would genuinely recommend to a friend.
FTC disclosure
In accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and
testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), Soundorabilia discloses its material connections to
advertisers and affiliate programs. All affiliate links on this site are clearly identified
and marked with rel="nofollow sponsored" attributes.
Affiliate programs we participate in
- Amazon Associates — As an Amazon Associate, Soundorabilia earns from qualifying purchases made through Amazon links on this site. Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc.
- Awin — We participate in affiliate programs through the Awin network, including Gear4Music and Music Magpie. These programs allow us to earn commissions when visitors purchase products through our tracked links.
Our editorial independence
Every product recommended on Soundorabilia has been heard, used, or tested — not merely read about. We do not accept payment for favorable reviews, and we do not receive free products from manufacturers in exchange for coverage.
When we receive affiliate commissions, they are based on purchases made after a visitor clicks a link — not on the content of our review. A product that earns us a higher commission is not given a better review.
How to identify affiliate links
Affiliate links on Soundorabilia are typically labelled with button text such as
"Check price on Amazon," "Check price at Gear4Music," or similar. They open in a new tab
and are technically marked with rel="nofollow noopener sponsored".
