  • Page 2: Introduction

    Your amplifier Does NOT make power. It converts power, or current, from your cars electrical system and turns it into a high power musical energy. If the amp can't get all the power it needs it will not produce its full output. Your ARC Audio ampli- fier will produce Full output for longer then other amps on the market today.
  • Page 3: Running The Cables

    Running the Cables Carefully run the power and signal cables through the passenger compartment of the vehicle. Running power down one side and signal down the other is the preferred method. If this isn’t possible, keep them separated as much as possible. When running through any metal, always use a rubber grommet to prevent the power wire from shorting and to reduce the risk of fire.

    Gain Because of the wide range of head unit output configurations all ARC Audio amplifiers have an adjustable input sensitivity or “Gain” . The gain is not a volume or a power limiting control like a throttle. It makes the amp more sensitive to input from the stereo.

    Bass Boost This amp has a fully adjustable bass boost. Both the frequency and the level of the boost are adjustable. Start with a small increase in the level control. then “sweep” the frequency up and down. Listen carefully for an improvement in the sound of the bass.

    XDi 650. 1 XDi 1100. 1 STRAPPING Strapping Strapping is the same thing as Bridging but refers to using 2 amplifiers This is a way of combining the power of 2 channels into 1. When you wire the amp bridged you have a higher voltage differential between + and -. That means MORE POWER. If you have 2 identical, properly designed mono amplifiers (They can not be a stereo amp that is bridged internally) you can bridge them together to create 1 channel.
