is a step up/down electric transformer bad ?


a year ago i bought a Luxman 590 AII on audiogon that was made in Japan and that is running through a Kashimura TI-19 transformer (1500W) and i was wondering if it was affecting the sound.

Ralph,
When you say "if you go above that, the transformer will ad distortion to the AC line and the results are both audible and measurable! and not good"...

Do you mean if your device draws 120W max vs your 200W transformer? Or if your device draws only 100W vs your 1500W transformer?

I admit to not having followed you through the forest...

If the latter, can you explain why that would be the case?
