ARC Audio vs Eclipse amplifiers...

Post by Justin from Detroit1 »

Which are better? I am talking about the low-line ARC Audio amplifiers, the KAR or Foose line (same thing, different heatsink). How would you compare these to the Eclipse XA amplifiers?

I dunno if you ment DA? Cuz that's all I could find from amp guts.
We both now that the amps put out rated power, and you're gettin products from two great companies. So they are both on par with each other I'd say.

its a hard call. eclipse have decent amkps but also the Kar series is a decent amp too. i would say its a coin toss with out seeing a test sheet on them or alot more detail to compare them.

Don't think I want to run ARC anymore, and was considering changing to Eclipse. I just bought an Eclipse subwoofer, so was considering their amps.

What is there to explain? lol I bought an Eclipse subwoofer...

and you can only get their very low line subwoofers at Circuit City. Do you really think I got their cheapest subwoofer?
