Thx for reply.
In my case, the display was o.k.,- it was only the backlight which I had to 
replace.
The floppydrive works perfect, - I can see programs and samples being 
loaded.
I can tweak programs and samples, - but I hear nothing !

I have 2 S-1100 here, 1 S-1000 and an S-1000PB, -
so I was able to swap all the cards in addition to the test routines.
So, - the digiboard is the last possibility.

So what to do if even the AKAI service haven\ufffdt found the fault ?
Maybe they did\ufffdt want to invest too much time for searching...

It must be something very strange.

If it worked before, I don't think it'd be a processor on the main
board. From what I've seen with various electronic problems, it's
rarely a solid state problem, more of an electrical or mechanical
problem. If you cannot see a display, make sure the floppy drive
connector is properly seated; for the s1000, the power up routine goes
to the floppy drive before it gets to the main board's OS.
