Upgrade and Invest in Rega P2 or P3
I used this on a tube preamp for a few years.https://www.amazon.com/Goldsource-STU-500-Voltage-Converter-Transformer/dp/B0022QOSDK/ref=mp_s_a_1_2...

You can buy a step-up power supply on Amazon for little money.

@bdp24 Great post. I was thinking when I was listening to BJM that this was the precursor to rock and roll. The roots. Hence my "Historic" comment.

Ocean - Put Your Hand In The Hand(Kama Sutra 1971)I don't think I ever played this. Hmm... gospel in the free love era. Flowers in my beard. 
How long can I expect tubes to last on a preamp or MW CD player?
Yeah, no need to leave on 24/7. Replace after 5000 hours.

@tomic601 I don't even own DSOTM. Too many nights at parties back then when TGGITS seemed to last hours.

@slaw There's reasons I don't play Steely D. Over-production is one. So yeah but it sounded good. The Ella 1959 mono blows it away.

I have a rule. If it sounds great and tracks well, it is fine.
