[QUOTE="centergod79, post: 7552580, member: 637010"] This is a FYI Discussion about this business. I have sent about 5-6 amps to this place to be repaired and can honestly say they have only been able to repair 1 amp well and it was a Kicker zx1000.1. I sent them an AB VFL400.1, AQ2200, and an AQ3500, none of which came back any better than how they went in. The last one the AQ3500 I was at my witz end and decided the hell with this and sent it back to them. I called them about the first 2 and the owner Scott said they were tested and worked fine and if I sent them back in that if their was nothing wrong with them I would have to pay the minimum bench fee of $35 plus return shipping, and I though well since they will be the judge on whether they're fixed or not, I'll just keep them. Even though I knew that their is no way a Kicker zx1500.1 should be 2x louder than an AB VFL400.1, expecially since I do have the battery to push them. Well since I sent them the AQ3500 back, they decided to spite me, and keep my amp. 4 months later after numerous un-returned emails, and phone calls, and anyone who has dealt with them should know they don't answer the phone (wonder why) I had to call the Portage Co. Sheriffs to get my amp back, and I bet it will still come back broke, I'll let you know when I get it. I have given them over $1000 for these 3 amps alone. I called other amp repair places (all of which answered the phone) and 2 of them said they won't touch an amp that came from ARC. Bottomline is, please be cautious if you plan to send them your amps, please concider these other centers DB-r, Ampmedics, CIA Engineering, because ARC will rip you off, thank you for reading. P.S. I am sure their are some that feel they have had good luck with ARC, and I'm happy for you [/QUOTE]
