Fairlight-CMI

Hi Pascal,

this is a very good idea from David ! I´ve got a IIx and I would love
to listen to the Talk Talk sound. 
For your problem: you can contact http://www.touched-by-sound.com
They are very good in repairing thinks like that. I had problems with
my IIx when I bought it but after TBS fix it I had no more problems.

All the best,

Marc
