Will Japan market gear work on US current?


Hello,
I have a friend in Tokyo whom has found an incredible deal on a Yamaha NP-S2000 network player and has agreed to bring back for me if it will work with USA current.

Does anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks!
Steve

"No need to use one, as it always hampers the performance."

Everytime I see an ad for Japanese gear for sale in the US, the ad always states something like "Just use a step down transformer. Does not hamper performance and can be found cheap on ebay."

Elberoth, do you have much experience in this? I'm asking as I was looking at some Accuphase & Luxman integrated amps. Many thanks.
