Yahoo I was able to order the ZXPand+ today. Still looking for the AV attachemnt. I am looking for a case for it and have seen the Memotech conversion.

I'll have access to a 3d printer soon and would like to print up a case. Are there any files available that anyone might share.

So far it seems there are no new AY boards for sale.

I was hoping someone had the files for a 3d case.

I thought the spand+ had AY built in?

The ZXpand+ does have a AY (or the Yamaha version) included. Maybe he is talking about the plug in turbo AY board.
This expands the ZXpand so it has two AY sound chips

See here for more details

The ZXPand+ should be here any day so I'm throwing it out there to see if anyone has 3d printer files for it.

Yes they do look nice but I have a 3d printer and was hoping to do the print myself. Just not done any CAD stuff.

The ZXpand+ arrived yesterday. I have been having some weird issues with it.

I have 2 ZX's. on a TS1000 not modded in any way. The other from what I have learned a US Zx81. The Zx81 had been upgraded to 16k internally.

I have seen corrupted graphics while running the 25thanni demo. This would play fine on the modded ZX but not on the TS even with the 16 external pack. It does play with the AZXpand+ on the TS now some graphics glitches.

No the big kicker is the audio. I have attempted to run the SDemo. It does run but the sounds are a complete mess. Sounds more like a rifle being shot. This happens on both computers. Same sounds like it is trying to play something.

My Power supply is more that enough to run all the hardware. 2amp.
I'm baffled as to the sound and graphics issues.
