Hello everyone! I bought a Velodyne dd15 from an online dealer from Wisconsin, through eBay and they also were/are not authorized Velodyne dealers so, no warranty, understood and with that said the darn thing is/was NOT in perfect condition. If I wasn't so busy last fall with remodeling my house I wouldn't noticed it sooner and I would've sent it back. What the darn thing does is it overheats waaay toooo easily and goes into a mute mode that does not show up on the monitor. It does this fairly easily after not much time, say first to maybe if I'm lucky the second song it will cancel out/shut off. It can be very irritating. whilst wanting the most from your music, it chooses to cop-out and self-mutes. I realize that it is the protection circuit doing this but what to do? does anybody have any ideas as to what is going on with it? And I guess I will need to take it in and have it repaired. any input would be awesome, thank you!
