Thank you gentlemen, No-one posted a down side. So I concur with you, it's a reasonable motion. But I'm afraid the deal will have to wait until this time next year. as I decided to buy an SACD. And now it's final.
Indecisive, IAN.
Japanese Voltage.
I was on the verge of buying a Japanese Luxman 509Z, on ebay. It it 100Volts, Here in the U.K. we have 240Volts. And the price difference is £9,000 (here) to £5,000 (there). I immediately went on line for a decent transformer (£130) and ordered it. We here, have an audio disscusion group, so I tested the water with them. The general advice was discouraging. "It will introduce noise etc". What is the opinion of yourselves? I'm not in a hurry, I decided to buy an SACD player instead. £4,000 (here!)
Thanks, An avid reader,
IAN.

@irjones - it does introduce noise, but whether relevant it depends on how transparency of your audio chain. In high-end audio, better components often drops the noise floor so additional may or not be acceptable. |
