"Here I am stuck between a moral dilemma"-Gone in 60seconds...
So, I have these and the Sinfoni Amplitudes listed for sale. I feel like I am choosing between children with witch to sell... and really wish I could just keep them all and cuddle with the extras, but I can't. So I am listing the Arcs as well, what ever sells sells...
![Image]()
What makes these special beyond the fact that they are some of the most highly regarded sound quality amps ever built back in the day, Is mostly all down to my Local Amp Technician... other than the 2100cxl he has done some beautiful work with them, this and they are all cosmetically beautiful... I compounded and buffed them with a 3m 3 stage and then hand waxed but they were nice to start.
So first I'll say a bit about what's done in the reconditioned 2500 & 4150... most places including Arc Audio mostly goes through them and inspects them very carefully... and replaces anything that NEEDS done...
![Image]()
A Local Amplifier Tech and a great Friend has done all the work to the 2500 as well as the 4150(still butting it up) He is a true artist with electronics, specifically Amplifiers and hes the type that does his work for the product itself... Truly passionate about what he does and not to be a downer on Arc, but another friend of mine had his 2500 done at Arc and the difference in craftmanship side by side is substantial... and he wasnt provided with any type of BOS or Recipt.. I cant begine to act like I understand all this but this is a general go over of what has been done to the 4150 & 2500...

-First they were torn down to the bones and Throughly cleaned & inspected.
-Main Board is METICULOUSLY cleaned (several hour process itself)
-All the Original glue and any contaminants removed
-All connections, components, EVERYTHING checked, double checked and re checked and then anything that even got a second glance was repaired/updated or replaced
-Each and every solder point is checked
-As for the Capacitors, all 40+ (not just the main larger caps) are replaced with upgraded quality pieces...
-In place of glue only solder is used for attaching the Caps, takes a lot of time but makes for a much cleaner look
-All the Transistors are Replaced
-The Transistor Backing Material is Upgraded to a more conductive Gold film like backing
-Replaces the Fan and the fuse terminals...
-& Much much more that is over my head...
All this is done and what's left is a cleaner looking, more durable, better soundin NEW example of a already very highly regarded amplifier... this has been done to the 2500 and the 4150 is a few days from being finished.

*Arc Audio 4150 CXL-R in WHITE (9.5+/10)
Modded, Straight Through 4channel old school Class-AB SQ Amplifier. And a very rare one at that, the white 4150cxlr is bar none the most difficult to find of all with maybe the exception of a white 2500. Still tho I've yet to see another.... that and the mods were originally done by a big name (forget who) and even Brad at Arc Audio knew the amp immediately after only just seeing a picture
*All Recondition things mentioned above have been done plus the following.
-Crossover Board Removed
-Noise floor raised? Or lowered (forgive me) for better SQ
-The Modded custom copper wire crossovers that were part of the original modifications have been re engineered and ran clean keeping it looking like it was meant to be there...using thicker wire, better solder points and a few different tweaks from Chris to improve on the original design... all and all for a cleaner look, more dependable and better sounding custom upgrade.

Also included is
-Rebuild Recipts & Paperwork/Pictures
-The Original Box
-All Origonal Components including the Crossover Board so if someone wanted to go back to origonal they can..

-Original Birth Sheet
![279744]( "279744")
This is No Doubt one of the nicest examples of a 4150CXL-R Arc Amp you will ever see, that, the rarity and the extra details are reflected in the price tho. Over 25 hours of labor alone went into it.
$650.00
