SID 6582A

Does anyone know how this chip sounds compared to the other models? It's a 9V version (like the 8580), and it was produced in 1992 mainly.

I have ordered a couple of them, since a guy on E-bay have 100 of them as new old stock. They cost a bit, but hey.. I want one anyways :-)

At least I don't... but since you'll receive some, please let me know :-)

I don't have a ebay account, but if you do, please tell this dude that he cannot state on his page on ebay that it works as a replacement for 6581 and 8580, since it will blow on 6581 machines (in case it is like the 8580 as Sledge says).

Would be sad if people bought them only to destroy them.

Well... you CAN use it as replacement, if you add a voltage regulator :-P
Or at least this has been accomplished by people.

He says on his page that they are 9V and cannot replace the older 6581 (12V).

There is a SID Wiki that mention the 6582, but no info on the sound or anything though.

Yodelking has one (you around, buddy?). He told me it sounds like an 8580 (filters and combined waveforms) and can play normal $D418 digis like a 6581. Jack-in-all-trade thing, I'd say.

Hello all,

They're probably internally regulated like the 8565 to 9V so you can use them in either machine.
..guess I will find out soon.. ;-)

well, the guy reenters his stuff always, and its getting cheaper every time he puts them there, you should have waited at least until it hits 10 pound

Yeah, I'm here... :) That describtion sums it up quite well. I have a faint memory of recording my different SIDs on my HardSID, but I guess it might just have been something I was _going_ to do, but never got around doing. :( Anyway, I've removed the Hardsid from the computer due to the fan started to make too much noise. So I can't record anything now, but I'll see if I can find clips on the computer, or if I never did record them.
