AmpliVox products were formerly manufactured by Perma
Power
Roth acquired AmpliVox, then known as Perma Power, in 1995, becoming the
fifth owner of the sound products line. Founded by Norm Ackerman in 1952, Perma
Power introduced the AmpliVox line of portable PA systems in the 1960s. The
company also introduced one of the first residential radio-controlled garage
door openers, supplying Craftsman garage door openers to Sears. In the late
1970s, the company added power outlet strips, surge suppressers, power
conditioners and uninterruptible power systems (UPS) for computers.
During that time, Roth was integral to the growth and success of the
business. Before joining Perma Power, he was regional vice-president for Xerox
and executive vice-president of Apeco and Numeridex Cad/Cam Systems.
