Willing to teach you the impossible

So my SNES is having audio issues. It wont play the right audio properly. So if I want to do any recordings with it, I have to set the game audio settings on Mono, making it not acceptable for SDA as said by nate.

Anyone have one for cheep? Cosmetic condition does not matter to me. I care about functionality.

Solved my issue

If it's one of the older style SNESes, it may be that the SPU needs to be reseated. It is fairly easy to do, you just need to open it up, remove a few screws, and then unplug/replug the sound board. However, you cant really open SNESes without a security bit, but if you happen to have one or know somebody who does, then it may be worth trying out before you buy another SNES.

I took it apart earlier today, but only removed the cover. Im willing to try it though. Can you describe what I need to do?

So how did you solve your issue? I hope you didn't dismantle your SNES on my advice for nothing -_-

Even though I am late responding. the SNES SPU is the shielded square board in the top right of this photo.

There are just 3-4 screws in the corners, and then you can unplug it from the SNES motherboard.
Newer revisions of the SNES do not have a discrete SPU, but just have it integrated directly onto the motherboard.
