via this auction"Fairlight IIX vintage sampler/ synthesizer. The unit is about 97% functional. The sampling input needs some work as well as the lightpen but neither of these are completely necessary to use the machine. Key commands can get you around the lightpen and having the Fairlight sample library would take care of sounds. The unit was just gone through by Synhouse and I put about $700 into it to get it tested, repaired, and up to speed. Both disc drives read discs, all 8 voice cards work properly, and the MIDI I/O works perfectly as well so you can use it with an external MIDI controller. I chose not to pursue the sampling input or lightpen fix but Synhouse will take the unit back in if you choose to do so. The monitor is suffering from the "bubbling" thing that goes on around the edges but it really doesn't look that bad when the machine is booted up. The screen is legible and works fine. It will come with all connector cables, CPU, both keyboards and OS boot discs which have all been verified and tested."
