Step down transformers for japanese gear
Hi guys,
Lately, I have bought for quite a good price Luxman power amp and preamplifier m900u and c900u directly from Japan (Hifi-Do). I used two EI transformers of 2k each to convert from 230v to 100v, and was very happy with the sound. The only problem I had was high radiation and a little buzz. I found a polish company that makes toroidal transformers and have decided to take the plunge. For 350 Euro including shipping, I ordered audio grade isolation 2k toroidal transformer which sounds as good if not better than the two EI transformers I have. For those who think of ordering gear from Japan, I can recommend this company (no relation, of course, I live in Israel).By the way, I used to own plitron in the past and was not satisfied with the result.
Cheers.

mrdecibel, Apologies for misspelling, and thanks to imhififan for correcting it. Actually this links takes you to the page that describes all the different transformers they sell, including Japan to USA or the reverse... You could buy it there or from the others which were mentioned. https://acupwr.com/pages/voltage-transformers-converters |
