Funny how I was telling Kevin awhile back Arc should make a radio...and then this Zapco comes out. the color makes it look "retro".

Long time is an understatement to say the least. Still waiting for them to get rid of the symbalink crap...

That is sweet looking, it would fit in very well with alot of the cars that come stock with the chrome/silver type dash kits.

That is true. Isn't the symbalink something like what some of the new processors are doing? Using wires instead of RCA's? Or is that something sort of different? I guess the symbalink for one is exclusive use on Zapco stuff, and other amps made by them....

Symbalink is used in all Zapco product..processors,EQs,amps,etc.. A complete waste of money IMO. They force you to buy the cables, which are pretty pricey.

What you may be referring to is the use of CAT5. In which case you can buy inexpensively practically anywhere and make your own lengths. Arc will be utilizing this capability.
