It would be pointless bringing that back.. Its all about revenue, and the cyclone didnt bring in much money, brought in more looks than anything. Once pg gets back on its feet, expect more limited edition stuff like this.

I am looking forward to these new amps, decided not to jump in on the F&F, but still interested in the RSD's.

 

I thought we were supposed to keep this info on the phorum. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Im guessing the manufacturing process of these amps hasn't started yet, as that pic of the PG logo on the new amplifier heatsink appears to be from a CAD drawing, not an actual product.

this will be so sick if it works out

i'd love a 3000W monoblock from them

so where do you guys make them? Just curious.

I would venture to say china, like most consumer products. As long as they are Designed here and and QCd here, it isn't a bad thing. I'm all for more quality products, no matter where they are manufactured.

good stuff indeed. Wonder if they are still based in Portland.

AAMP of America is based out of Clearwater, FL

they should get Zed to design an amp.. :]

but I can't wait to hear about the new RSD components D

 

[Upgrayedd 10+ year member]

People other than Zed and Nelson Pass DID make good amps //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Older PG amps like the MS and MPS and the like were built when PG was breaking into the biz. I know I was there. They had to splash big or fail, so they pulled out all the stops, and they blew just about everybody away. But not for long...The only amp that sounded better back then was the very first Sony XES line, but they looked very poorly made inside

And yes for the early 90"S they were absolutely the sexiest amps on the market. but more over they delivered what they advertised and were built using only the highest quality devices. Their peer group was ZERO back then as no one used the quality components like they did. The closest competitor was ZED

PG also used VI limiting in most of those amps along with fuse resistors which prevented disastrous failures. I know of no other car amp company that ever used the safety devices PG did, and of the few that use some later on, it was on a very limited basis.

As for Morgan well I know him so I am interested in what he has to show and as far as him being with AAMP/PG well maybe he can also deliver like vintage PG did. I am watching myself to see whats up with the big Spin. I actually hope they pull something off. I was a loyal PG guy since 91 and would love to see something done with the name. unlike other buy outs that went to junk cookie cutter stuff...

The snap of the new stuff looks at first glace to be made in the JL slash factory. If so they have a good start cause the older JL slash lineup was also a market setter for years. Perhaps some more close up pics and more info very soon will help me to see what the big noise is about. Hopefully PG will distribute info to all site and not just the one in Canada using their name.

As far as everybody using the cliche of going back and what not well well this industry does have its share of Marketing, just like any other.

It would be interesting to see what does come out of this, but I must say it will be a FIRST to see something great appear from the ash's of a old and reputable name like PG. But I am hopeful....
