Hi all, At the risk of sounding a complete clod, I thought I would enlist the help of anyone knowledgeable in these forums in the subject of step down transformers. I was thinking of buying a Marantz 2270 from a USA dealer. I'd be so grateful if anyone here might give me a guideline as to which step up transformer I would need to buy to enable me to use it in the UK? The only other transformer available to buy is the second one below, which doesn't give ampage. I may also wish to run more than one Marantz receiver. I have no idea of the ampage or wattage though! _______________________________________ HEAVY DUTY 240V TO 110V CONVERTER FOR LARGER LOADS STEP DOWN TRANSFORMER 1000 watts, 8.30 Amps 1500 watts 12.5 Amps 2000 watts 16.6 Amps 3000 watts 25 Amps _______________________________________ 240V TO 110V CONVERTER 100 TO 300 WATTS STEP DOWN TRANSFORMER 300 watts 500 watts
So grateful for any help anyone can give here. From a very "novice" novice!
Not only will you likely void the warranty but you may destroy the equipment as well. Many makes of electronic gear can be safely converted for use in other countries by the maker or an authorized repair center. I would take this route.
