  • Replacement of all electrolytic capacitors with high quality blue Vishay caps to retain the original look of the motherboard
  • Fitting heatsink onto the ULA to prolong the life of the Spectrum (Please note the ULA socket will be removed and the chip will be soldered down directly to the motherboard to allow sufficient room for the heatsink inside the case)

  • Replacing rubber feet if missing or damaged
  • Cleaning the Edge Connector and ensuring compatibility with divMMC Future.

  • The Refurbished Speccy will be covered by our 1 Year Warranty.

    Recommended even if the present membrane is working (exceptions apply)

    Fitting brand new front panel reproduction - Add £19.99
