Will this lame cut-down version of Terratec 512i work with G-Rex4000D ???

keropi · 28 August 2006, 17:17

I got ebay boned. instead of this:

a full and normal 512i card, I got the one below... it sucks, and the seller m-ware is emailed. I think it is a shipping error , but we'll see... do u think it will work? currently I don't have an AOS installed on my 4000, and until some scsi equipmet arrives, I cannot tell if it will work or not... any info?

Sure doesn't look like a Terratec 512i to me

What a lame-ass seller

What does it say on the card?
Does it even has a FM801 chip?

keropi · 28 August 2006, 18:19

no , it is a 512i , most likely a value edition... it is FM801 based, and the terratec driver finds is as a 512i, but this is not what it is pictured! damn!
the seller is great, I got tons of old hw from there, but this time I got boned. lol

No optical out... bummer if you have a MiniDisc etc.

keropi · 28 August 2006, 19:28

and no 4 speaker out...

alexh · 28 August 2006, 22:46

Surround sound on an Amiga? Dont make me laugh

keropi · 28 August 2006, 23:11

the SB128 I had on my 1200+Z4 Mediator supported the dual output... lol
though I was reffering to what has been cut from this value edition...

Let me know what happens. I've been trying to find this very same sound card to use with the new Mediator I've just bought for the A4000T. I think I came across the same auction, but I didn't want to risk buying from an overseas Ebay power seller.

keropi · 29 August 2006, 17:13

wow, I knew it was a mistake, I am getting a normal one free

here is the email I got:

Hello,

we have luck: I have also a TT801-QD.

Maybe we have sent you the false item.
We ship the TT801-QD immediately. Please do not send back the first item, its yours now.

best regards - Freundliche Grüße aus Schwerin/Germany

Sometimes you gotta be lucky

DrBong · 29 August 2006, 20:38

@Keropi
Wonderful!

Can you give me their email address or Ebay ID please? I'm hoping that they might have another Terratec 512i to sell me.

keropi · 29 August 2006, 20:43

it is ebay user: m-ware and here is the ebay shop: http://stores.ebay.com/hardware-components-by-m-ware

Thanks Keropi!

I ended up getting lucky and persuading a German Ebayer to sell me a brand new card outside of Germany for 10 EUR:

Airmail will cost me 30 EUR, but I expected that and am not fussed since it's a brand new card
