Your amplifier Does NOT make power. It converts power, or current, from your 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.

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.

Remote Status Display MOTO 600.4 is equipped with a Remote Status Display LED that can be mounted in a visible location near the amplifier. By simply plugging in the Status LED you will have a visible indicator that matches the function of the Power/Protect light on the amplifier.

MOTO 600.4 AUTO DETECT SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT AUTO SENSE MOTO 600.4 uses a BTLD (Bridge Tied Load) Auto Detect Turn-on circuit that offers a significant improvement in reliability over previous designs. Instead of relaying on the music to supply enough signal to turn the amplifier on. Robert Zeff’s design detects the IC (chip) used in the vast majority of stock head units and amplifiers.
