I've encountered the same problem with the subs popping at high volumes. Being an electronic hobbyist myself, I've open up the power amp module ( the rear side with a enormous heat sink ).
I managed to identified my problem due to 1 of the 2pcs of 4700 / 63V uF capacitor leaked ( aka reservoir caps ) and that leads to shorting of an NPN transistor D669A. I've since replaced both the 4700uF / 63V uF capacitors ( advisable to replaced a pair ) and the faulty D669A transistor. So far, my subs is working like new again...lol.

    I'm having the same popping problem. Seems like the amp is kicking into clip prevention at volumes that weren't a problem before. Was the amp particularly hard to remove? I have all the perimeter screws out and it won't budge. Velodyne wants $190 to repair (plus shipping).

I believe the unit has a blown fuse, but I cant locate it?

Hello,

If the fuse is blown, then you can locate the fuses at the power stage of the power supply, trace the LIVE terminal on the you see a link that connect the fuse and the LIVE terminal of the power source, most of the fuse are easily detached, because they have a fuse holder, but some are resistor like in appearance, it is always solder to the panel board, which make it difficult for people to know that is a fuse, but as a technician they will know.

Hope this will help in solving the problem...

My velodyne sub rattles when volume turn up

How high? There IS a limit to any speaker's volume and cone travel of the driver. The woofer could be bottoming out. Driving any speaker with excessively or with anm UNDER powered amp can send speaker-killing square-waves to it.

I just got a velodyne deq 10r, i paired it with 5

In the manual that was included with the unit, it covers the basics of this question.

It really is up to you and how you want the sub to work with your mains.

Try one setting and adjust to find what you like.

I just bought a used Velodyne hps 18 subwoofer. I am hearing popping sounds even at idle. What might be causing it?

This is related to the "servo control" circuit.

For repair you will need to contact Velodyne.

No volume control on Velodyne SPL12BV sub amp

If my memory serves me on this amp, the volume control is actually a chip in the pre-amp section.

You could try and replace the actual knob on the panel and see if that fixes the problem.
If not, you will most likely have to send the amp section back to Velodyne for repair.

If you do send the amp back, use some masking tape and mark the speaker leads. Hooking these back up wrong will blow the driver and the amp.

No sound

1. Verify unit is plugged in and power outlet used is active.
2. Is power switch on?
3. Is auto turn on/off set properly?
4. Is unit receiving an input signal from your source?
5. Have all controls on subwoofer (volume, crossover, phase, etc.) been
properly set?
6. If unit has been running at high levels, one of the protection circuits may be engaged.
7. Has the built-in amplifier overheated?
