why switches set to 2 ohm
so maybe I read this wrong and that could be my problem
2Ω Stereo/4Ω Bridged Any speaker or combination of speakers with a total combine Ohm load between 2 and 4 Ohms (not lower then 2 Ohms) must use position. Bridged loads down to 4 Ohm must use this position. The amplifier will make full power at 2 Ohms Stereo (4 Ohms bridged). Note: you can use any Ohm load above 2 Ohms in this position however power output will drop as the impedance increases.

Did you miss the part where I said they get louder than they need to be now with 150W? They are rated at 103.5dB sensitivity. The manufacturer recommends 50 to 150 watts listening wattage with 350 watts dynamic. They "sing" just fine now at 150. At one time I had only 120 watts feeding them and they sounded a little warmer. Not everyone needs to throw gobs of wattage at small speakers in an attempt to make them sound like larger speakers.
A common complaint I have seen on these boards regarding the Arc 602 speakers is that they sound too bright. Could it be that over driving them is why they sound that way?

I think you have the Arc Moto 602's confused with the DBMotos.
KMarine I haven't tinkered with the settings on that amp that you are using but you could try calling Arc tech support at 209-543-8706 and describe your setup and settings to them and see what they recommend.
