Sound


All Amigas come with sound as standard.  The A500, A500+, A600 and A1200 all
have 8-bit, 4-channel sound, whereas the A4000 has 16-bit sound.

All of these can be upgraded using modules such as the Aura or Clarity 16 to
give improved sound accross the board at very low cost.

The basic PC, on the other hand, has a small internal speaker (capable of
little more than the average error beep) to its name.  However, if you are
willing to pay the price of a brand new A1200, you can upgrade to a 32-bit
sound card for your PC.  But the sound card then requires drivers and
devices to control it which fill up the PC's tiny 640K
