Converting tube preamp from 110v to 230v


There are several great deals on Agon for tube preamps but they are invariably 110 volts. Is it possible to have a 110v preamp converted to 230v without sending it to the manufacturer ? I see no reason for a manufacturer to indulge me on this.
Many thanks

Thanks. Won't a transformer have some sonic effects, sound degradation etc ?
Many thank for all the responses. My query was prompted by a spate of high end ARC preamps for sale on Agon. I guess there are no shortcuts...!
Have a great XMas

This story has a happy ending. Bought a used 110v CJ GAT on Agon . Asked CJ for wiring instructions. Lew Johnson graciously sent the diagram etc. Conrad Johnson is a fantastic company to deal with and Lew is a true gentleman , always a pleasure and ever mindful of his customers. This is so unlike that other tube company which simply refuses to have anything to do with voltage conversion.
Many thanks to all of you who chimed in.
Cheers
