1. you will be OK with 110V. 2. your warranty will void, but there are lots of independed techs able to service Accuphase that is not so complicated. 3. don't ask Accuphase dealer about anything done on unit purchased outside of US. they won't honor your request. 4. i know nothing about the import process, but if you will experience one, please share. |
Most Accuphase products have multi tap primaries, at least the few I've had come through here, so any qualified tech should easily be able to convert it for 120V operation by reconfiguring a few jumpers. It may however be that products sold in Japan have only a 100V primary transformer installed. I would not recommend running a 100V product on 120V, you could however buy a step-down transformer for few hundred $ that will facilitate proper operation. Best of luck Peter |
Seems that Peter is correct regarding a step-down transformer. http://www.pricejapan.com/front/e_good_info.php?code=793&category=12 |
