Hey Guys

Im new to this site and want to put a system together. I was wondering if anyone knows who deals Zapco amps in southern ontario. Also, how is arc audio compared to zapco?

Thanks for the quick responses guys. I live in hamilton, so im willing to travel to burlington, TO, niagra, london, etc. I saw one amp a little while ago at radio active and plan on going there to check them out, however i was hoping to find a place that has some on display so I can here them. Thanks for letting me know about the one in Brantford exec849, I'll check them out next week. Do any of you guys have zapco reference series amps? I have a chev sierra with JL XR series 6 1/2 componant in the front, and may get 5 1/4" coaxials in the rear (in the future) + a JL 10" w3 sub. Any suggestions on what zapco reference amp/amps I should be looking at? my budget is about 1500-2000$ for the amp.

Zapco amps is something I want to check out this fall when it's time to buy, at least there is a dealer close to me, any others in the Brantford/Kitchener/London area that any one else knows about ??.

Further to the interest in Zapco amps, Car audio & Electronics mag had a review of one of Zapco's digital amps on their website (www.caraudiomag.com), plus came across another review in CA&E of a Zapco amp in 2003 (came across it while reading the older stuff...), sorry I can't remember the right issue...

Lee at Burlington Radioactive has 2 Zapco amps running one of the Focal boards, sorry I'm not sure which models are wired up this week....

He likes CCA board members too....

Just to let you know, from a lot of people that have discussed Zapco, they feel the best Zapco stuff came from the Robert Zeff era. He designed and has made Zapco into what it has become pretty much ...........from what I'm told. He's now exclusive to ARC Audio. He has stated that his new ARC Audio Signature Series is the best amp(s) he's made. I haven't seen or heard these offerings back to back so I can't really make a statement to qualify performance, but probably worth looking at the Signature Series if you're in the market. Concepts on Wheels is currently building a car with Signature Series amps, Alpine F1 transport and processing and DLS drivers.
