Those aren't Art series. They're just plain ol' sweet ProMos. All white PPI amps had the graphics. The Art series were the next generation that had the finless heatsinks. My favourites are the black Art series - they had the circuit board pattern engraved in the top of the heat sink.

I love these amps. The 2 channel, I owned one when they first came out (ran my whole audio system at the time), and am 99.9% sure this one is the one I used to own. Still has sticker on bottom from local shop that would have most likely came into possession with it when I sold off my system.
2 channel powers my subs, 4 channel is bridged as well but powers my front speakers. These amps love to be pushed to the limit. I need to add some additional front end speakers to put more load on the 4 channel.
I did not compete back then, (I have not yet currently, but want to) but these were dubbed "cheater" amps. As you'd enter into a lower category due to them being 25 watt, but the actual output was huge due to the amount of load you put on them. I bet they'd hold ground against some of the newer stuff these days.
