The MOS SID is the sound chip of the C64. Sadly they are no longer in production, and the ones that do exist start to fail. There are several replacement solutions out there, with varying pricepoints and sound quality. Now there is a new contender, fully open source hard- and software. It goes by the name of Kung Fu SID - promising great emulation and a price that's hard to beat. Does it deliver...?
