    C712 Preamp Question...

    Ok, this may be a stupid question but I can't find an answer in the manual... The preamp has both balanced and unbalanced (RCA) line outputs, but no dedicated sub output. The RCAs are needed for my amp, can I use the balanced outputs also (at the same time in other words) to supply the new sub...

    Down-firing Subs

    Well, my second attempted repair to my ULD 15 didn't work, so I'm in the market for a new sub... The ULD 15 is a down-firing sub but they've seemed to have gone out of style. I like that style, they're considerably less 'obvious'. From what I can find, audible differences are slight (depending...

    Anybody rebuilding their ULD-15 sub?

    Well, that wasn't the answer.... but I'm only out $20 and some time so it was worth a try. Without the new surround duplicating the OEM 'compliance', the correction circuit just can't get it right....

    Cocktail Audio AKA Novatron X40 Server

    This may not be the place for this, but I couldn't find another forum that seemed appropriate... I've been eyeing a 'music server' for quite a few years, but the technical expertise apparently required to assemble a home-built computer-based system is beyond me. All the advocates of these that...

    Since when has McIntosh been considered Hi-End?

    Interesting opinions, but I think many are missing the point as to the reasons why Mac owners have love for their gear. Although it may be a generational thing to a certain point. A quick history lesson may be in order... In the late '50s through to the late '60s, McIntosh and Marantz were at...

    Anybody rebuilding their ULD-15 sub?

    They didn't have that available when I did my repair (out of stock at the time?).... I'll give 'em a call. Although I'm still wondering about the driver/correction electronics. I ran into more than a few of these for sale used after being repaired like mine, they didn't sound right either. It...

    Anybody rebuilding their ULD-15 sub?

    New guy here, found this forum through Seaton Sound... Ok, my problem. My loved Velodyne ULD15 died recently. Not an electronics issue, the rubber surround gave up the ghost from what I assume was age. Being retired since purchase and now on a fixed income, swallowing the cost of a new sub of...
