The lower voltage also allows the unit to run noticeably cooler, especially during extended sessions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product_notice positive\"\u003eWe have cleaned the unit thoroughly inside and out. There is no sticky residue or buildup commonly seen on Virus units from this era.

Unlike the adjustable display commonly found in the Virus C Desktop, this display does not switch between red-on-black and black-on-red. It looks fantastic in person, but wanted to disclose.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product_notice neutral last\"\u003eThis unit is in excellent cosmetic condition and is very clean for its age. There are some blemishes on the rubberized wood sides, consistent with normal handling over the years. Overall, the sides are in much better shape than we usually see. There is also and occasional very minor blemish in the finish. Please examine all photos carefully, as we have done our best to document the condition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith the full recap, all new tact switches, new volume pot, new power switch, new battery, Triad PSU, and other maintenance work completed, this gorgeous Virus C Desktop is well prepared for its next life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSale includes the synth, Triad 9V 2.0A power supply, and free shipping to the continental US.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Access Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44227626041462,"sku":null,"price":1475.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0631\/8378\/2006\/files\/1_0796f5f1-0385-40b0-969c-343cf2a73331.jpg?v=1789855805","url":"https:\/\/captainblacks.app\/products\/access-virus-c-desktop-synthesizer-61937","provider":"Captain Black's Gear Emporium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
