Does anyone know if a subwoofer made for use in the US (120v/60hz) will work properly in Japan (100v/50hz)? If needed I could buy a large step-up transformer to boost the 100v to 120v but my understanding is that the hertz stay the same. Is that going to be an issue? Thanks.
Yes, I have a B&W ASW-850 subwoofer that will work on any worldwide voltage/frequency. I ave used it in the USA on 110V/60Hz and France on 220V/50Hz, no problem at all, just had to change the mains fuse.
