Hi Frandsen,
I just purchased a 110V A-50V model and it even says in the manual that the unit can be converted to 220/230/240V. They suggest to let an authorized Accuphase dealer do it. Before I moved to Bermuda, I had all my Accuphase gear converted from 240V to 110V and it was no problem except for the PS-500 which could not be switched. I would be very cautious about using third party transformers in my chain.
US prices are somewhat cheaper than Europe's but nowhere near the deals you get in Asia. You should be able to buy 230V in special stores in Tokyo but would need to do some research. Normally, expatriates posted to Japan will know.
