One probably stupid question... you are sure this is not a problem with the source? If you flip the L and R RCA cables, is the lower volume channel still the same one?
You mentioned switching speakers and power supplies, but you never mentioned reverting the RCA cables (or changing the source?) to make sure the problem resides within the AMP itself?

And the stupid question is Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! Kinda silly of me to not think of that - but that was it. Hooked the offending ACA up to the Left source, and volume was normal. I can blow the doors off with it now.
So, on to this source problem next.....
Last but not least, thanks to everyone here for chiming in with help. Now at least I have learned something and have some simple troubleshooting steps at my disposal.
ACA likes "Red House" with Frank Marino - Mahogany Rush!
Good guitar play above average!
I think more apropos would be Steely Dan's "Time Out Of Mind".
Active preamp is always better in my experience.
Yes, the NuTube B1 will have gain.
That begs another question...
How will it be announced?
There is not a pre-order list?
How much will be in the kit? …..PCB, JFETs and tubes?
Don't have any of that info yet.
In the time being, here's the current version, but we'll have to wait and see if there are any changes for the version that's released -
B1 with Korg Triode
well that' the schiits - you / they knew that kinda that was coming
just make sure you get your documentation correct before shipping across the border, or you could get busted for tarrifs, etc on return.
The name just begs to be abused, doesn't it? They play it up on their website quite a bit, so they are used to it, I'm sure.
I'll be spending some time in the US shortly, so all the shipping will all happen down there. Much easier.
That's half the battle, but just make sure that if repair requires more time than you're planning on staying that the return documentation clearly states "warranty return" or such. Speaking from experience, if the shipping documents include a value for insurance, you might still get dinged for GST/HST on delivery.
