"This KS is in need of a small amount of work.
It's currently mostly working but exhibiting some odd behaviour.
I'm told by a reliable tech who has repaired several of these that the cost of repair would be unlikely to cost more than £150 GBP.
Seems to be the usual case of replacing chips and caps as far as I can tell.
As you can see, the boards are super clean with no cracks.

I bought an AKS this January and to be honest, it could be the Synthi rather than the KS that has issues but I've no way to tell as I don't have access to another Synthi to check.
this might work perfectly with yours.

It also needs a new cover.
You could have one vacuformed quite cheaply or make something yourself from perspex/abs sheet.
Either way, your KS would be unique!"
