Re: Good News/Bad News SDS8

2007-02-24 by edrumr

This is true. the SDS 8 and most, if not all simmons brains used a
common noise generator. If one side of the stereo out is bad, that is
another problem. If you can find someone who knows what they're doing
it should be able to be fixed rather inexpensively. If not, it could
be more trouble than it's worth. I have prints if that would help but
I'm in the us. I could probably fix it but, again I'm in the USA. Let
me know if I can help.
