they were mass produced in Germany/China and many of them are being sold cheap in here - but most of them have filter problems...
i will be replaycing my c64g sid - just found a good dealer from Germany - 28$ for 8580 sid tested with working filter

Topic: c64g sid filter problem in cynthcart (8 replies, posted in Commodore Computers)
Hi - i'm a newbe here - need your advice pls
i have bought a c64g and i think i've got fake or dead filter in my sid - when i was using cynthcart (loaded from tape) when filter option is turned on there is no sound - if i turn it off everything is ok - when its disabled everything is ok - but with filter on i get very low almost unhearable sound - when i turn on fifhts option i can hear something - and when i press two notes or three at once there is a sound - shall i sell it or is there a way to fix it? maybe it's a fuse or something?
in couple of days i will be able to test my other c64 which i bought for 6581 sid (i hope it will be fine heh) - but i want 8580 too - can you pls help me? i've ordered mssiah and i'm afraid i will have to buy next c64g but right now i'm afraid there are a lot of fake /demaged sids out there -
where i can buy tested one? with working sid filter?
