[sdiy] Synthi AKS cables?

[Eric Frampton]

My search was in advance of my actually receiving the Synthi I'd just paid for, and it finally arrived a couple of days ago. As it turns out, it's missing some other important pieces besides just the cables as reported - but, as you and Tim pointed out, EMS is still around with Robin Wood at the helm, and he has in stock the missing bits I need. So it makes more sense for me to order those pieces and the complete cables from him all in one fell swoop.

Thanks for all this info, tho'!

It's good to know he's still up for sending out cables, but I'd rather not waste his time (and take the massive hit on the exchange rate) for something that I could assemble myself if I could just find the right connectors. I'm searching the surplus sites now...
