Step-up/down transformers degrade performance?

I live in London & want to buy American gear. Problem is current here is 240V. I've been advised to buy step-up transformers to attach to the units.
Has anyone any experience with these & how they affect performance of components (esp. CD players).
Would be grateful for any advise.

Thanx all for your responses. I'm keen on buying hi-end Classe equipt (esp Classe CDP1) from USA/Canada from Audiogon but haven't found a London hifi dealer who will do the conversion - it's apparently quite difficult.
Will look into the suggestions made & will report back in due course.
