[Amps] B&W PT2500A

[Mark Beckwith]

Paul, here's some comments from some owners - you should be aware that it 
started as "Viewstar" and then B&W bought them out.  The B&W and the 
Viewstar are absolutely the same.

I have a friend with one (N6TR) and in his review on eham he calls it "a 
great fixer upper" and says "This amplifier had a large number of problems" 
but goes on to say, after detailing all the fixes he's had to do, "If you 
can get one of these for a small price and don't mind doing some component 
replacement, you will end up with a good amp. Mine has worked without any 
... problems now for many years, but it isn't anything close to being a 
stock amp."

I have used his amp and I agree with his final quote.

Mark, N5OT
