Hi all, I recently turned on one of the two C16s back on and after many years I started using it. My first love ❤. I also recently purchased the 64K "SaRuMan" memory expansion and the SD2IEC should arrive in a few days. I wanted to ask you if you can buy a SID cartridge (or PCB schematics)
Thanks in advance

Yes a SID cartridge can be purchased but you will need to ask around on the forum as they do not come up often and are only made by people in the sheds on a rainy day . You will get one if you stay committed to the cause.

Thanks, but which users should I ask?

That I can't really help with. I got mine from a really nice member on here many years back. I think he was called Baz and was very active in the Plus/4 demo community if that helps at all. He was the fella that did that super cool under water movie demo using some crazy setup via the plus4.
Just persist with asking is my advice, it may take you a few years to get one, but persist and you will get. As I say these are made in very small batches from time to time.

PS You will never find one for sale on eBay . These SID cartridges are for life.
