Accuphase voltage conversion 110/120 to 230 VAC


Hi
I'm planning to buy a Accuphase A-50V or A-60 and a DP-67.
However they are very expensive in Europe and I'm thinking to buy one in the US or maybe in Japan.
Do anyone know if it is possible to convert a Japanese or US model from 100/120 VAC to 230 internally using a switch/ moving some cables, or are they entirely different models with different power supplyes?
Can the Japanese and US models run at 50 HZ?
Thank's

The simple answer is "yes" with most models. I have the DP-75V, the C-275 and the A-50. All these I have opened and checked the wiring. In five minutes anybody who has seen cables can do the change but you need to change the fuse, too, which is even easier. I live in Japan, but will move back to Europe next year and plan to take the Accuphase gear with me. I actually own a PS-500, too, so I decided to buy a transformer (240v to 100v).
If you want photos of the cabling contact me:
