I recently moved from the USA to Paris. Based on my experience, HiFI equipment is a lot less costly in the USA than Europe. Especially high end equipment. Personally I use a 2kW transformer/stabilizer to run my 110V equipment in France (220V). You can purchase a whole range of 110/220V transformers from http://www.appliancesoverseas.com/catalog.html (they are in Houston). However, if you want a recommendation for a good high end dealer in Paris try; Presence Audio Conseil, 10 rue Des Filles Du Calvairt (They have Martin Logan Prodigy speakers in-stock and a lot of used Cello equipment).
