Velodyne DD15 - worth repairing the plate amp?
The DD series doesn't connect to a computer. The plus series does. Although there is a way to upgrade the firmware for the DD series with a computer but it takes a special cable from USB to serial

Enjoy. The Velodyne may still be worth repairing to use as a second sub depending on model. I just repaired my DD-15 myself. It cost around 600.00.

Veodyne subs can be repaired. Which model is it?  
SVS or REVEL Subwoofer
Revel does make subs. Not that good in my opinion but they are expensive. REL makes a fairly decent sub. They don't go very low for a sub though. SVS makes a great sub for the money. Velodyne makes great subs but are expensive.

Have you ever used the video out on the Velodyne? The DD series uses the microphone to equalize the sub to your room. I believe the standard xover is set at 80. You can set the xover to whatever and for 5 different settings. You can also use the p...

Usually, unless things have changed, Audessy doesn't do that much to equalize subwoofers. And I would also assume that Velodyne's EQ works more closely with it's internal amp. But I could be wrong because miniDSP is supposed to work great for subs.

It's a great product if you want a simple way to set up subs that don't have built in room correction. Minidsp does more but requires a computer. Once set up it doesn't anymore though.https://www.minidsp.com/

It's an outboard version the one built into the Velodyne DD series. You can use it with any sub though. Can be used as a replacement for the Velodyne built in EQ if needed.

Sounds about right. EQ and a large amp are very important with a for a small cabinet to go deep.

What kind of deep bass are you getting and will it play loudly?

I have a DD-10 that's apart and it measures 12 ohms. I never checked the 15 when it was apart. Do you have a multimeter?
