Original Price:
£149.00
Known Errors:
Distorted sound due to incorrect resistor placement (fixed later in ZX Spectrum +2B/+3B models).
Remarks:
Essentially a redesign of the ZX Spectrum 128 +2, this model can be distinguished from the earlier machine by colour (initially). Rather than being grey, it is black. Internally, the +2A is closely related to the ZX Spectrum 128 +3 model; in essence, the disk drive from the +3 was removed and replaced by the cassette recorder used in the earlier design.
A small hardware revision (to fix audio output clipping problems and remove support for internal floppy disk) later brought the +2B (not a completely separate model).
You could also buy one of the special sets, the James Bond 007 Action Pack, Police Pack or the ZX Spectrum +2 Action Pack.
The package included the book ZX Spectrum +2A Manual.
