Sid Chips

[dougmoser]

I am going to a flee market this saturday to see if I can find any c64's.  Been checking ebay also.  Anyone else have any input on getting sid chips?

For "as new" & tested chips wilba is the best person around to buy from.

BUt if youre after the older sids, the likes of the 6581s, which have a different sound then you could pick a few up off the market.

theres different revisions of the 6581s, some say they are warmer, and have different filter sound.

But the 8580s have a very "clean" sound.

Remember that the filters in these older chips have a higher chance of being broken than the 8580s/6582A's.

If you want a 6851:

I've got one lying around.

I don't need it cause I've ordered some 6852 at Wilba.

I'll sell it to you If you want it... 15$ that's the same price

I've paid to the person I've bougt it.

I don't remember the name, but he's on the forum, too.

No thanks man, did the same thing you did.  And thank you everyone else, I am just so excited and I am still exploring the website so I still haven't found everything yet.

Two years later and 1500 SIDs have passed though my hands.  ;D
