Modify Audio Research to 220Volts


Hi Guys, I currently have an ARC Vt100 Power Amp.(110Volts/60Hz). I intend to move to a country which have 220 Volts/50Hz. Is it possible to modify the Vt100 to work on 220 Volts? What are the changes consist(can I do it by myself)? Thank you very much. Roger.

Not all ARC amps have a convertible transformer and extra taps for the conversion. I have heard from ARC that the VT100 Mk II sold in the U.S. requires a new transformer and so is a fairly expensive conversion. I do not know if this is true of the original version as well. I'd check with ARC or an authorized service representative; either can check the scehmatics and quickly let you know.
