Thanks I will post pics soon.I am a computer TARD as for beauties they are not in the shape they were years ago :cry:The shrouds need to be recoated but at least I have them I found them in the top of my old ass barn about 6 years ago right before I tore the barn down with a lull and then lit it on fire.I do not think they would have looked so good after that.

if your handy you can swap out the caps yourself. Not tough to do, I just did mine. Great tutorial in the how-to section. Nice amps btw.

I am a little handy but not really that great at soldering.I am unsure if I should try on my 2250s maybe I will wait until I get my hands on a 2125 that I might get today.I should go ahead and learn because paying someone to repair 2- 2250s 2- 2125 2-275s is going to be alot of money :( :( 1 of the 2250s needs a resistor replaced also if you can see that in my pics not sure about fixing that myself.

R 332.I don't know what caused that could have happend when my buddy had them or from me.I had 4 of them pushing 8 15's 2ohm mono..I had to send at least one of my amps to Phoenix Gold every month back in 1993 1994 you probably worked on them. :lol:

:lol: Yea there pretty cool.I use to compete "SPL" in highschool so just about everyone who had any kind of system knew about PHOENIX GOLD because that is what I ran in my truck my freind that had the 2125 never ran PHOENIX GOLD he ran ORION amps but knew the 2125 was worth something.I wish he had two of them.
