Use of a 110 VAC to 230 VAC Step-up Transformer for CD player.

Shouldn't I be concerned about the CD player being designed for 50 Hz , but  running at 60Hz. In other applications this may not be as important, but with high end audio gear I just don't know. Thank you for responding

I am trying to see if the manufacturer will sell me just the power supply, if that is all that needs to be changed. They are saying to send the unit to them and they will do it, but that will take weeks or months and add about another $800 - $100- to the cost, which I am trying to avoid. I hope that ypui are correct mgattmch. Thank you

Sound quality will suffer why would you buy a foreign unit anyway??

Foreign units are more readily available and frequently at a lower cost. If sound quality will suffer I am not going to do it. That is what I am trying to understand the impact.

OP -

A lot of transformers are dual-voltage. A qualified tech may be able to re-wired it internally to switch for you.

If the CD player is made for Europe and the US this is very likely.

Best,
