Japanese voltage 100VAC

Norm,
I would think so.  There are voltage fluctuaions in every country, with a +/-  of 10-15 volts being pretty normal.

Personally, I would be comfortable with your solution.

Other thoughts?

I agree that using 105V to power a turntable designed for 100V is not likely to be a problem, provided the line frequency is correct. That's within tolerance.

I disagree that a voltage deviation of ± 15 volts is "pretty normal" because that could result in really high or low voltage. In the U.S., nominal voltage is typically around 123VAC, with a 5 to 7 percent deviation allowed.

Dear Cleeds & Normansizemores,

Thanks for the reassurance that I'm not harming my electronics.

Also you should look at the hz the mains runs on especially with a turntable, as it has a motor.
The US runs at 110v 60hz a 100v item can be Japanese or another country and they have 50 or 60hz

Taken from wiki " 60Hz motor will run 20% slower on 50Hz power supply"
