ZX Spectrum +3 (Issue 1) Sound Fix *updated*

Sound fix diagram here. (pdf)
from Cristian Secară Homepage:
The first release (the +3) has a fatal hardware mistake: the 128K sound output is completely distorted.
- Tech explanation: the analog output of the AY-3-8912 sound chip was intended to be amplified by a one stage common-emitter transistor. In practice, they have forgot to put a resistor to the transistor’s emitter. The result: the transistor works in switch-mode – the sound is converted from analog multi-level amplitude to digitized two-level amplitude, same as the old 48K sound system.
