European Voltage: options


Hi,

I have an eye out on a Nagra Jazz preamp from Europe.
The  ACPS II is for 240 V and I have to use it in our 110-120v North American environment.
I don't want to buy an $$$ MPA; what else could I do to use this preamp?

Thanks
Bernard

Just get the cheaper 15amp one of these. You have 240v up to your service/fuse box then it goes 110v/120v to your house.
One of these gives you the 240v back, without the need of expensive noisy step-up transformers.
