There should be a make and/or model number stamped on the mainboard. But for a
PPI art amp I just don't see the art.

that is not a PPI Amp.
it looks like an old urban audio amp [i think that was the brand name
anyway]
it is direct from the car audio section at your local Wally-World super
center.
definetally nothing very special,
it looks exactly like the one i used to have about 15 years ago?
it was purple in color when i first obtained it,
but then i scraped all the paint off of it,
and what you see now is what it looked liked underneath the painted
surface,
someone just put a PPI sticker on it,
to try and be cool?
i am sorry to say!

Thanks. That does not surprise me AT ALL.

As I said before, I can find NO OTHER reference to PPI ANYWHERE on (or
inside) the amp.

From the get-go, I was suspicious that it was a sticker stuck onto the amp.
Especially considering the fact that I have every CSR and CA&E Buyers Guide
going back to 1990 and could find NO PPI amp that matched these dimensions.

I'll check out Urban Audio's past amps and see if I can find one that
matches. I would STILL like to know just exactly what it is (partly because
if I go to sell it I should know what the hell I'm selling).

IF I recall correctly, the Urban amp I had many moons ago had a Targa
Mainboard inside it. it was billed as a HEXFET amplifier. I can't
remember the model, but it was a big 4 channel beastie, that wasn't
too shabby, but it wasn't extremely powerful, I think bridged, it
handled my CV XLS-10's fairly well.

Unfortunately, I didn't see the original post, so I can't tell for
sure.

if you have CSR going that far back, look for the UAW commercials,
they're usually cartoons with a life size rat sitting in a
convertible...Targa had the big Sumo Wrestler. I don't know why I
remember that.
