At PPI, we build upon experience. We currently design and manufacture over 20
1200 Watts
different amplifiers. Each is designed to be application specific, either in rated power,
number of channels, or with integrated accessories. This large reservoir of knowledge

As you review this section, keep in mind that the new features found in the Art Series
amplifiers directly influence their performance and, therefore, must be understood before
operation and / or installation. Please take a few minutes to review the following
information. The user benefit and operational parameters of the 'key' design features are
detailed below.
Pulse- Width Modulated (PWM) Switching Power Supply
The voltage supplied by an automobile's electrical system will vary depending upon the
number of accessories you are using. As you turn on / off various accessories (head-
lights, air conditioner, rear window defroster, power windows, etc) the voltage that your
car's electrical system is providing will change according to the demand. The Art Series
fully regulated power supply guarantees rated spec over a wide range of voltages (11
VDC to 15 VDC).
Our PWM supply offers high-efficiency. This efficiency translates into cooler operation.
The hostile environment of mobile audio presents a real problem for an amplifier to
operate properly. When an amplifier is running, it develops heat It is the job of the
heatsink to pull this heat away from the internal components. If the heatsink gets too hot,
10 Hz -50 kHz
the amplifier will modify its operation to protect itself from damage. The amplifier's ability
to maintain a proper operating temperature is oftentimes aggravated by the conditions

(ambient air temperature, mounting location, playing level, duration of operation, as well
as the load impedance) presented by the auto-sound environment. The Art Series PWM
.2 - 2.5 V
power supply's high-efficiency means lower operating temperatures and a higher
tolerance for thermal control. The temperature protection circuit will engage at 75
10k Ohms
degrees Celsius.

Heatsink Design
4 - 8 Ohms
To understand why PPI created this unique heatsink design, it's important to understand
11 - 15 Volts
what purpose a heatsink serves and how it works.
When an amplifier operates, the internal components develop heat. This heat must be
transferred away from the components for them to operate properly. By securing the
components to the underside of the heatsink, the process of conduction transfers
