Thank you that's a good idea. My A4000D Mediator is populated and it working fine. I don't think I need 3.3 volts unless something new comes out that I must have :) I suppose it's a good excuse to buy more new Amiga hardware!


The Sonnet Crescendo PPC board requires 3V.  There is an ongoing effort to make it work with already great results.

See this thread at English Amiga Board:

Only problem with Sonnet it... you can't buy it anywhere :(

Yes you have to find it second hand now.  Sonnet sold off all the stock a few years ago at dirt cheap prices.   They do periodically show up on eBay.  And maybe at computer stores that sell used Macs.

I was lucky enough to get my Sonnet during the fire-sale.  I paid $29.95 USD for the G3/500MHz version.

Elbox is shipping my new Mediator 3V 4000Di today so hopefully I will have it in a week or two and I can also actually use my Sonnet now :)
