Allows seamless replacement of the factory amp in select premium sound systems.
For the best sound, replace the factory amp.
It's an increasingly common problem. You can't replace your vehicle's premium factory radio, but the premium factory amplifier isn't powerful enough for you. Furthermore, the factory amp gets digital information from the vehicle's databus and replacing the amp would mean you'd lose all audio control, like volume and balance, as well as other features like steering wheel controls, audible navigation alerts, warning chimes, and Bluetooth connection. iDatalink's solution, their Maestro AR2 module, combines with a vehicle-specific T-harness (sold separately) to supply clean audio and control signals for your aftermarket amplifier so you can give your music the premium impact it was missing.
How does it work?
The T-harness plugs into your factory amp's input wiring, linking the radio to the Maestro module and the amplifier. Your factory radio continues to work just as it always has, but you now have much more power and tone processing ability. It was a common practice, when adding an amplifier or processor to a premium system, to sum the different amplified signals together (tweeter, midrange, woofer), attenuate them down to line level, process them while removing amp noise, and then re-amplify them for the speakers. iDatalink's AR module eliminates all those steps, resulting in a much cleaner output. You get vastly improved sound quality and the ability to upgrade your speakers and subs, while you retain your vehicle's stock radio and all of its functions. Sounds like a win/win to us.

Features:
Factory Amplifier Replacement Interface: The iDatalink Maestro ADS-MAR2 from iDatalink is a factory amplifier replacement interface module for select Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Ford, Jeep, Lexus, Lincoln, Mitsubishi, Hyundai, Kia, Jeep, RAM, Subaru, Toyota, and Volkswagen vehicles. It enables seamless integration of an aftermarket amplifier (sold separately) while retaining the vehicle's factory radio and all of the original factory functions.
Vehicle Specific harness (sold separately): Installation of the Maestro ADS-MAR2 will require a vehicle specific T-harness for installation (HRN-AR-CH2, HRN-AR-CH3, HRN-AR-CH4, HRN-AR-FO2, HRN-AR-F03, HRN-AR-TO1, HRN-AR-TO2, HRN-AR-TO3; all sold separately). The vehicle specific T-harness plugs between the vehicle's factory amp wiring, the Maestro AR module, and your aftermarket amplifier.
Output Connections: The Maestro ADS-MAR2 can convert the factory audio signals into 6 analog RCA pre-amp channels (Front, Rear, Sub) for connection to your amplifier, letting you retain factory fade, balance, Bluetooth calls, etc. A Toslink optical digital output provides a digital 2-channel signal for running to a DSP amplifier for further processing. The digital output does not retain the factory fader adjustment, since it's strictly 2-channel audio, unless connecting to a Maestro-compatible amplifier.
3 Installation Types: The Maestro ADS-MAR2 lets you add an aftermarket amp in one of three ways; Factory Amplified systems, Factory Non-Amplified systems, and Maestro-Compatible Amplifier interface with a direct digital connection.
Factory Amplified System: The ADS-MAR2 and a compatible T-harness will be installed at the fact
