Here are photos for rear of 3 boards you specified:

I will appreciate very much if you would provide information on them.

Thank you in advance.

@foolishman ,

Thanks for the photos, this time Accuphase is using a PCB instead of terminal block like before. Its connection method is still the same.

Looks like your friend already understands how these connectors work! Simply swap the positions of the black and yellow wires and swap the positions of the brown and orange wires to convert the power transformer primary winding from 100V to 120V.

On the #716-0962-01 board you will need to replace the small 100V transformer with a 120V one, or simply use a resistor to drop the input voltage.

IMHO, Accuphase products are certainly state of the art in terms of build and design, and if pricing was more affordable outside of Japan, I think more Accuphase enthusiasts would be able to enjoy it.

Thank you very much for providing information on how to convert 100V to 120V. I have done accordingly, and I confirm I have successfully converted voltage to 120V. According to my friend, there's another way to convert to 120V, which is to swap the positions of the orange and yellow wires and swap the positions of the brown and black wires. Do you think it is OK?

I agree.

Information you provide always helps me. 

Thank you very much again.

Yes, both the 100V and 120V setups have the two primary windings in parallel, swapping the position of the orange and yellow wires and swapping the position of the brown and black wires should also work.

Thank you for your response. I will let him know about it. He will be glad to hear it.

Thank you again.

 

What can't I see the photo's. When I click on them it just takes me to Onedrive
