I would love to see a running excel sheet of all the amplifiers you've tested. Every new amp you test you add to it. Showing the rated and tested output power at various loads, efficiencies, and cost at time of test. At the moment I am looking to replace my old ass JBL BP1200.1. It's having an issue where it shuts off when it runs "too hard", and has been getting worse and shutting off at lower and lower volume levels. So yeah having an excel listing specs and features would be awesome to see from you.

Thanks for testing these and pointing out the internal components... I wonder if they cheaped out when they went to online direct sales and just didn't change the box and literature. I have the 2ch Power Class A/B amp they made just before these (very similar to the SoundStream Reference Series they brought back). At the time, they hoped they would bring a revival of the old school series back... They tried to keep them dealer only, but unfortunately it didn't pan out that way. I remember reading a thread from a high level employee stating that if people weren't willing to pay the dealer prices and insisted on online price wars that they wouldn't be successful and they would be discontinued... Unfortunately that's what happened. My amplifier is brand new, I've tested it to verify that it works. I've heard a lot of amps, and my class A/B Power Series sounded amazing to me... I would love to send it to you for testing because the whole Power Class and SoundStream Reference revivals were always interesting to me.

Budget Gem hasn't posted in a long time; your buddy HiFi Vega hasn't tested a 4 channel amp in a long while. There is SO MUCH CRAP out there it would make Dick Rickulous cry!

@BenDeSwert666 2 месяца назад

Derek! What the hell did you do! This thing outpowers both the amps I had before, combined! 😂 The sheer power it puts out is incredible! This is going to cost me my subs! For reference, I got a 1987 Mk2 golf, alternator only puts out 90A (which is an upgrade from the stock 45A) 95AH battery, and a competition class 1F capacitor. Ive got 2 Hertz subs, both 350WRMS. One in a closed box, the other ported. I had 2 amps, 1 for each sub, and it was loud. But since they're 4 ohm (single coil) nominal, power output wasn't great. Now, I've got this amp powering both subs in parallel (measured 1.6ohm at the amp) and MY GOODNESS this thing has some POWER now! Voltage DROPS FROM 14.7 till about 13.8v in the back, on full blast, so that's not so bad. This is why I keep watching you. I was waiting for a gem like this to be reviewed by you, so I can have a more efficient setup. You da man, Big D! 👊🏻 Bass on!

Thumbs up to Precision Power with the design of this amp. Love the good looking faceplate protecting the adjustments from other people who "know better" than you do, and as soon as they see a button or a knob they gotta touch it. lol. I have to say I'm very interested in this amp now. It may not have quite made all the rated power, but for the price still pretty good. A little concern about heat dissipation, but a little modification and adding a fan would help. this would not be the first amp that would benefit from doing such a procedure. As I think every amplifier should come with a built in fan, and would benefit from one especially for long term use/durability. And if it sounds good then hopefully a decent buy. Thanks Big D!

@georgeb1364 Месяц назад

Back in the McIntosh Clinic days one test they ran was distortion at "Rated Output." Most other brands failed as the units could not even reach rated output let alone get a distortion rating at that output. They convinced many customers to buy McIntosh because it could reach rated output and distortion specs in a real world test. Including used units that customers brought in to the clinic. If a used unit did not meet those specs they would fix them on the spot so the customer went home with a to spec unit. Would love you to run that test as 1% distortion is pretty high.

@MacNifty 2 месяца назад

It's amazing the amplifiers we can buy today for the price and how you can stack them. If you buy four of them you could have four dedicated channels with independent filtering. Component level is pro level. You could have five of these and have your system and drivers more dedicated and separated as component level.

@MacNifty Месяц назад

@@Underground-Electronic-Music but then you're splitting and dividing power which adds interference. Ultimately all signals should be distributed and separated not processed. That's like Delicatessen processed meat. It's like Distributing power to the city blocks of the neighborhood. If you're truly with cybersecurity and then even further on Signal protection. The best systems have at minimal by amplification per 3-way crossover Network channel. Rather than do virtual processing you can do straight up separate. So I'm saying you can have individual process signal delivered to each amplifier but you really don't want to mess with the signal feeding your amp. It depends there's different issues between the different ways. But when I'm recording and I'm running a console or I'm running individual instruments one at a time. I want those signals truly separated and nothing conflict. With cheap amplifiers you can make it better than an expensive system that's consolidated. You can have an amplifier for each band. You could literally have incrementation amplification kind of how we do processing for computing we can start enveloping amplification signals in different ways we could never do before and go back before DSP. DSP is fake world

@Brock_Landers 2 месяца назад

This is the ONLY PPI amp that I have seen perform close to it's rated power. I bought a PPI "1200 watt amp" a few years ago when I purchased an extremely cheap set of Pyle 12s for my Civic when I wanted to get back into the game and it was VERY disappointing. It barely pushed a cheap set of Pyle 12s. I made the box out of 3/4 MDF and tuned it for 34 hz and they were crap subs, but should've sounded decent in that box, but the amp was crap. I sold the box, subs, and a "3000 watt" $90 Lanzar amp for $250 to a kid and he loved it in his Accord. I bought a set of $500 Sundown SA12-D2s with a Soundstream Rubicon Nano RN1.5000D "5000 watt amp" and there's no way, but it slammed my Sundowns and was 1 ohm stable, so I can't complain. However I have ALWAYS wondered what that budget $250 amp actually makes. I still have it, but it fried, so I bought a Sundown SAI-1750D amp to replace it. It's an intelligent amp, so it cuts out all the time, but that's because I don't have the electrical system to support it.

Nice looking amp and the price is good. 2oz copper in the PCB is something that a lot of PC mainboard makers state quite often. The MSI mainboard that I bought almost 4 years ago for just over $100 has "PCB WITH 2OZ THICKEND COPPER" listed as a feature. I would bet that many amps built these days also have that, it's just not listed as a special feature.

@SheikhN-bible-syndrome Месяц назад

They don't make PCB bords with 20oz sorry the most you will ever find that's actually true is 4oz but 2oz is the thickest mass production bord you can get so that 20oz is a typing mistake or just flat out lieing on there part

I'm always a fan of phase KNOBS over a reversal switch. Never understood the point of using a switch, unless it's in concert with a knob. Sometimes it can be easier to find the most out of phase point with a knob and then reverse with the switch to get you right where you need to be. But never a switch on its own.

I bought 2 of the power class amps.....they are some seriously well built amps.....The old Art series camps were not that great.....I had them, and only thing I kept was the Art series preamp.....and my original punch amps

@MassBoost Месяц назад

The Art series amps were some of their most popular (and still are) amps they've ever produced. The took what they had in the AM series amps and incorporated PWM switching power supply that would run from 11 to 15 volts. They added the new AM II protection circuitry to the Art series, and they came out with the new unique smooth heatsink design that didn't have the cooling fins like it's predecessors or every other amp on the market. The distortion rates were extremely low, and they were some of the best sounding amps on the market.

I'm curious about GaN power amplifiers. How small can they hit, say, 5000W burst. Can't wait for its launch.

It may be possible that they started swapping out components once they started selling at a lower price. It would be cool to see one that was purchased from a dealer for retail and compare.

@JasonWW2000 2 месяца назад

It's also possible that the stated components are only used in their Class A/B amps and not in the class D monoblocks.

I think the price drop explains the swapping out of the german and japanese components. Overall PPI is to be commended for making a truly unique and well built product. Even with the true power output the amp is a great deal.

@@JasonWW2000 all the “power class” amplifiers are class D and the info Big D quoted is directly from that series’ page on the PPI website.

Maybe they use the cheaper components on their class D mono amps. Their 4 channel amps say D on them but they're actually class AB. Hopefully they use the Wima caps and Sanken transistors in them. I really love the look of these amps. Shame it didn't do rated though. Thanks for the great video BigD!! 💪🔥

I noticed in this video you show the amp with a 100A fuse but when seeing it on amazon they have an 80A fuse. I wonder if they have the wrong pic on the site or have the option to send various amps vs what is claimed (like the components in this demo video showed non Sanken nor non Wima for example).

What would the 1800 power series do

@housepumpinpc3983 2 месяца назад

I would bet the dealer direct probably had the Wema caps and Sanken transistors. Once they went to Amazon they went to off brands. That probably affected the results you got. Still a great deal. Peace.

@gen-X-trader 2 месяца назад

that thing is a steal for $119, wonder if the sanken transistors and wima caps are in a 4x50 or 4x100 type model rather than the sub amp?

@h1nicolas 2 месяца назад

Its a class D amp, why they mention Wima Film caps and Sanken Bipolar transistors which are usually used in linear amplifiers with better THD performance. The aluminum electrolytic caps are an unknown brand, MOSFETs being used for switching. Its just a fancy looking class D amp :)

For 120, this isn't bad at all for the simple fact that you would not notice a difference between 850 and 1k watts. You definitely wouldn't hear a difference when playing music now since it states that it is made with, in mind, audiophiles. I wonder how it measures for distortion. Imagine if this amp 4 channel line THD measured at.005%, I would consider running an amp like this for 120 😅

If not an art series, it's not a ppi. My first class d mono block amp was a 1000 watt mobile es( big d has tested it) and with it's 75 amp of fusing outperform this epsilon p.o.s. and if you're wondering, my sony did over 1,440 watts dynamically @1ohm.
