Anyone heard of a PS Audio 200C Amplifier

[avaserfi]

I think I might be able to pick one of these 2 channel amps up for 50-100 bucks and was wondering if anyone has heard of them or experienced it. I tried to do a little searching on google and couldn't find too much. They seem to be good and it would be a fun toy to play with especially for the price. Any input would be great.

Jump on it. It is 200 watts per channel, that is a typo on Audioreview. The amp weighs 70 pounds.

If you aren't going to get it, let me know where it is.

I knew it was 200wpc from what I understand its two monoblocks enclosed into one case and sounds nice I just didn't want to waste money but I know this one is in perfect working order.

I'd jump on it. PS makes some good stuff. Dual mono configuration is how my integrated amp works as well. When you look inside the case from the top, you see two completely separate amp sections.

Well I guess its time for me to get my dad to sell me some of his old components then . I mean they aren't that old he just picked them up a year before I was born hah.

For the price its a deal but keep in mind that PS Audio is not well known for being able to service their early model products,in some cases they cant service their older gear at all.

I love audio review! Granted, the reviews are often skewed by folks that want to gush about their latest acquisition, but often you can pick up on eqpt that has problems. It is a great way to get real world views on units.
Of course it is also peppered with the sterophile posts we all love so much:

Avaserfi, I would be careful here. The fourth reviewer, Lou, shares that "this amp is dark! " He goes on to share that this is OK, just don't pair this amp with other dark gear. Also, silver cables are reccomended because we all know silver is bright and will help the amp with it's dark side.......

Audioreview has the best reviews ever...if you are looking for comedy.

I noticed that. I was reading some of the reviews and laughing so I figured I would ask people here, you know the ones who understand what an amp does .

I too find reviews on the Audioreview site to be quite funny.
