Could someone who owns this product reply if the DVD player is rated 100-240V. Most DVD players are universal voltage, however Sony website says its only 120V compatible. Its strange but can somebody please confirm? Thanks.

From my experience with most of the Sony devices I bought from the USA, they support dual voltage. Specific to this product, I guess "Sony DVD player owner"s reply answers this question.

if their electricity is 110 to 120 volts 60 cycle you may just need a power cord adaptor to be able to plug it in to the wall. try calling radio shack and ask them, if they dont know can tell you where to ask further

It should work in the Philippines, but only as a plug converter as indicated in other postings. The voltage converter is not working effectively.

I would also like to know if this is dual voltage (I understand I would need to use an adapter) I just want to make sure it's dual voltage first. Does it say 110-220 or something like that???

I assume you are using it in India! I am thinking of buying it for Pakistan which has same 220 Volts. Does it have dual voltage & how was the quality of the sound? Can you please highlight your experience. Riaz Khan

I don't know what dual voltage is. if you mean like over seas, probably with a adapter, never had a problem with other curling irons with the adapters overseas

There appears to be at least two different variations of the Sony DVP-FX780. One requires AC adapter model AC-FX170 (9.5V 1.2A), while the other requires AC adapter model AC-FX190 (12V 0.95A). Check the power requirements on the underside of your player to determine which one you need.

I bought mine from amazon and so far so good on multi region use. Must say that long term use has not happened for me yet. Will get back to you on that.

This model is not dual voltage, that means you will need an additional voltage converter in order to make it work in alternate voltage situations. Here's what Conair says regarding this on their website: If your appliance is not dual voltage and is not a curling iron, you will need a voltage converter and possibly an adapter to fit the foreign electric wall outlet. Small converters to be used for travel are usually available from travel catalogs and stores as well as in some airport shops. Conair also carries a travel accessories line which you may be interested in buying. You may want to check with your hotel abroad to see if they provide any amenities such as hairdryers, in your room.

Hey bro, as im in Australia using this tranny I had to buy a travel adapter outlet to be able to plug it in at home. So are you able to do that..??

This does NOT have the dual voltage switch. I ordered it thinking it does, but the US model does not have it. In the owners manual, in the diagram of the back of the unit, it states that this switch is only present on "general" models, whatever that means. I was hoping to use this in Brazil, which I still will do, but I will need to plug it into a power downconverter.

Does anyone know if there is a patch for multi-region viewing on the BD570 yet? It's been a great machine, but we watch international DVDs and it's a pain to have two machines for this purpose only!Thanks for any help I can get on this.Tim

You would have to ship all parts back to America at your cost for warranty claims. Also be mindful that if the fault is due to the foreign power supply you won't be covered by warranty. I'm not sure what voltage the grid in the Phillipines runs or how reliable it is. You might want to check those issues. A surge protector wouldn't be a bad way to go either.I've had no issues with mine being used in Australia, we juice about once a week and it's still working great.

Well, I ordered the burners thinking that it was Australian standarded voltage, but when I plug in it was burnt. Then I throwned the boxes already. So could please refund. Thanks Regards Ngawang

Hi Jon, my name is Luis Colarino and I live in a city in Brasil where the voltage is 220V too. You can use the pedal board in 220V without any problems, the power source has an automatic voltage selector which allows you to connect in 220V directly.So, if this is your concern, consider it solved, go ahead and get the pedal board, it comes already with the cables, you just need to buy the pedals. All "Boss" style pedals will fit normally. Enjoy the gear and play loud!!!

Did you ever find out? I bought the BG2020 thinking it was dual-voltage which all my electric razor/travel type products are dual-voltage and I was surprised to see the adapter is only 120V. It is not a big problem since I can use a small voltage converter but if the 2030 is dual-voltage, I may just send the 2020 back and buy the 2030. Any comments?

Probably because it's dual voltage. I just used it in India and Singapore. I just needed a outlet converter cause outlet shape is different but no voltage issues. Outlet converters are cheap.
