Most electronic equipment is designed for the global economy, and uses transformers that have split primary windings that can be connected either in series (for 220 v) or parallel (for 110v). Many units have a switch that the user can throw to make the changeover. If there is no switch, the rewiring job in minimal.
110V to 230V power conversions
Hello, I'm new here...just looking through some of your systems; there's some crazy stuff there.
Anyway, I thought I'd take advantage of the favourable exchange rate at the moment and get some hifi stuff from the US.
Does anyone have experience of converting from US [110V] to UK [230V]. I'm thinking in particular of Pass Labs X600 and X1, and possibly a Sony SCD-1...?
How much would it cost roughty to convert? Does the cost depend a lot on what component it is?
Thanks!
