I have a few 'bad switches' and need to find the following switches for the psp2...
Apem
25139-LD 4pcs
25149-LD 2pcs
25136-LD 2 pcs
25136-NLD 1 pcs pwr switch
Vark Audio is working on the unit, but they say they can't find the switches w/o having to buy "thousands" does anyone have any recommendations ?

Buy thousands and put them in the closet for the next repair? :P
Hope you find what you need. Good luck.

rather than replace the switches, could they possibly put everything other than the power switch into a "permanent" position?
for example... make the preamp permanently:
-mic in (no need for line in)
-48v (no need for 0, 12, 24)
-35 mic sensitivity (you can bump levels with the 744t or 788t ;) )
-0 rolloff (you can edit in post)
-0db gain (again, you can adjust with the 7xx)
it'd make the unit more like the m148. we both know you never sell anything anyways, so no worry about resale value. hell if the unit is in bad shape, maybe you could take a stab at getting the gain structure replaced/modded with knobs like the psp3.
ps - any chance of getting them to snap pics while the unit is open and taken apart?

oh yeah... and here are some switches. probably not what you're looking for but maybe a start:

and
http://www.iqsdirectory.com/electric-switches/
my understanding of the psp2 is that eaa had problems with the units then went out of business. aeta came along, bought the remaining pieces and had only enough to put together 25 more units. the psp3 was loosely modeled around the psp2. aeta subsequently had a fire and we'll never see psp2's or psp3's produced again.
shot in the dark, but did vark contact aeta to see if they have any switches left?

Never knew the story behind eaa & aeta. T+

i've really gotta get in bed...
check this out: http://www.apem.com/slide.html
they have some switches that might work, but more importantly, i put the switch numbers into their "stock locater" and it looks like some of the pieces you need might be there. of course it doesn't really sound like finding the pieces is your problem though. sounds like you're having a harder time finding under 1000 at a time.
