In this episode of Chris Edwards Restoration, the spotlight is on the AA3000+ Prototype, a rare and intriguing slice of Amiga history. What started as a promising revival of Mr Matt3k’s AA3000+ took an unfortunate turn—once working, the system is now unresponsive. But don’t count it out just yet.
Chris dives headfirst into troubleshooting the Hese recreation of the AA3000+ Prototype, a modern reimagining of Commodore’s elusive AGA-powered Amiga 3000. Armed with persistence and a workbench full of retro tools, he begins methodically diagnosing the issue. From power checks to deep dives into the custom chipset, this is more than just another repair—it’s an exploration of lost potential in the Amiga legacy.
As always, Chris brings technical know-how, historical insight, and a bit of dry humor to the table. For Amiga fans and restoration buffs, the AA3000+ Prototype is a fascinating piece of what might have been. Watching it come back to life—or at least fight for it—is a thrill in itself.
Whether you’re knee-deep in retro gear or just enjoy a good restoration journey, this episode is a must-watch.
