Vintage Amiga Hardware Blog

The Multivision 500 is a scandoubler/flicker fixer for the Amiga 500 (that can also function with an Amiga 1000) and is internally mounted. The small circuit board is pressed into the Denise socket, and the Denise chip is removed and mounted onto the Multivision.

I have been searching for this kind of mini tower for years so I was very happy to find one for sale last Sunday. It is a classic Baby AT tower from 1993, personally I think it’s a beautiful tower, very compact and enough space for hardware.
