Accuphase E-260 Voltage Conversion (100V to 230V)


Hello Forum Members,

I have an Accuphase E-260 Int. Amplifier wired for 100V wall outlets. I am trying to convert it to 230V. From various threads on this forum, I could figure out that this unit has quick connect terminals for winding wires. It was less daunting to find that out!
Can somebody pls help with it's 230V wiring diagram?

Thank you.

I can confirm the given wiring diagram works for 100v and 230v for E-260. I changed mine to 230v. I must note that the system required some 20-30hrs of burn-in after the change.
Thank you @imhifiman

Hello imhififan,

I got an Accuphase E-270, I also want to covert the voltage, here is the picture

 

Would you know it the same as E-260 setting and just change the new cable color? Thanks.

Is that to say if I buy luxman cl38uc directly from Japan,we can change the voltage by ourselves to 120V ?

@frankhhh

I believe E-270 basically has the similar connection, Accuphase changed the color code on E-270 primary winding wires from E-260.

Sorry I can’t see the color very clear from your picture, please confirm if the setting shown on your picture is 100V Japan voltage? and also confirm if the colors are correct as following:

Pin 1 = None

Pin 2 = Yellow

Pin 3 = Orange + Black

Pin 4 = Brown

Pin 5 = Blue

Pin 6 = Red + Gray

Pin 7 = None

BTW, below is a picture similar to E-260 primary winding color code, except the blue wire should be violet on E-260.

Once you confirmed which wire belongs to which primary winding by a DMM, voltage conversion should be quite straightforward.
