I have a Logitech - Speaker System Z623 (220-240V) 200W (RMS) With this converter, can I run it in the USA off of 60 Hz/120V? Thanks

Probably. There seems to be enough headroom. You are using it for a speaker system, so unless you have it on full volume, it wont reach 200w. But also you don't want to cause a fire - so better safe than sorry.

I've read that you should only use a converter for up to half the rated power output, so anything up to 150 watt would be OK. So, I'd suggest you get a more powerful converter, e.g. 500 W.

This is a late answer - but what you need to know is the power consumption of your amplifier. This will be printed on the back, on the same label that says 220-240v, 50Hz. The power output to the speakers doesn't tell you what you need to know, as different classes of amplifiers have different efficiencies. If the label on the back lists a consumption of circa 100 watts or less, then this step up transformer is fine. If your amplifier has power consumption greater than 100 watts continuous, then you need a bigger step-up transformer.

The one I have is a 100 - 240V 50/60Hz switching supply. So far I have only used through 110V step down transformer as have not changed the US plug yet so I can plug in to 240V direct. cheers.

A converter would be needed, but you would have to make sure that the converter would be capable of handling the wattage that the receiver be using. At 120v 60 Hz it can draw up to 390 watts. Many converters will not handle something that uses so much wattage. It is possible that the additional cost of a converter that would handle the power requirements would negate most of the savings on the unit itself. The other thing you should check into is weather purchasing through Amazon in the US would enable warranty coverage where you live. This is a discontinued model and that is a large part of why pricing is discounted as much as it is. While Denon makes reliable products, I don't think I would want to take a chance on the potential warranty issue. There may be other sources in your country that would be offering discounts on a 240v model that would not need what may be an expensive converter.

This speakers system designed in USA, the power supply is 120V and 60 Hz. But I think that can be used in Tokyo Japan (100V and 50Hz)

I would say no this cannot run on a 220-240 line. It is currently running on 120 volts A/C in US and puts out a maximum of 100 watts. This is a small transformer used to power model trains. You might see if you can get s step down transformer that would convert your 220 to 120 volts a/c and then run it that way and see if that might work. Hope this helped. For more output look at the z-4000 - that is awesome.

The Keyboard delivered in the US uses 120VAC input and has a 12 VDC output. If you are in an area that uses 220 VAC I'm sure there are adapters for that situation. One caution, if I remember correctly the 220 VAC systems are 50 Hz, not 60 Hz as it is in North America and some converters will not work at that frequency. Get yourself a 12VDC adapter for your location.

I don't see a 220 switch on mine. I'd contact the folks at Presonus for the answer. Looking in manual it says up to 240 but must be factory configured for country of origin.

No, It is 120 volt. You will need a converter to use in 220volt countries. But I love the quality of the sound and its overall performance. It is worth trying it if you really want it, just get that converter.

On the back of the amplifier it says 110-120 volts AC, so I would assume you can't use 240 or 220, however it does allow 50 and 60 hz frequency.

Just Google that question. It says you'll need a converter or else you could cause a fire (not to mention fry your ToneMatch. A lot of countries run off of 220 volts.

Although I've been trying to get this right for a couple of years, I'm not a technical expert - so don't blame me if your amp blows up. However, here is what I've learned: Power conversion is trickier than it seems. There are two element related to power conversion. The first is voltage. This product should do a good job of converting from 220 to 120, and the 3000W should be enough capacity for a 200W amp. But the other issue is "frequency", which in the US is 60 hz. In Europe and likely where you now are, it is 50 hz. None of these converters will convert the frequency from 50 to 60hz (that would require an extremely expensive piece of gear that cost much more than your amp). This frequency difference makes motors run slower than they were designed to run. Although I don't think of power amps as having "motors", it's hard to say what gizmos are in any given high end component and what effect the frequency difference might have. If I were you, I would look at the amp's instruction manual (or the back of the amp) and see if there is a switch that converts the amp to run at 220/50 or maybe it will say 120/50-60, meaning it can handle the frequency variation if the voltage is converted. But really, your best bet is to call Integra, tell them you are considering the Power Bright VC3000 and ask them how this amp will perform with it. They should be able to give you a quick answer.

Dear Sultan, Thank you for your inquiry. The Onkyo LS-B50 Soundbar system only works in 120V/60Hz. Please let me know if I can answer any additional questions for you! Regards, Eric Cohen World Wide Stereo

The difference seems to be in the input voltage, so it's not just the model number. Even though Philips web site for this lists that it accepts "110-240V", all of the main sound bar unit, subwoofer unit and the manual state that it accepts 120V only. If I knew this, I wouldn't have gotten it from USA.Getting big chunky adapter kind of defeats the idea of a soundbar that I wanted to mount on the wall, but I'll see if I can replace/upgrade the internal power supply instead.

Short answer: No. Not unless it was built for Europe. It uses transformers in the power supplies and there is no external switch 120 to 220. If you want to use it at 220 and it was built for 120 you need an external 220 to 120 transformer (do not use a switching down converter, it will generate a lot of noise).

Dear Jim, Thanks for your inquiry. The Marantz SR6008 is designed to work with 120V only. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance. Regards, Eric Cohen World Wide Stereo

I would have to say no. Equipment made for the USA is 120V not 240v. You should check directly with Denon about getting a suitable unit for Australia. Good day mate !!

This device cannot run directly on 220v. It plugs into any American wall socket and has no power supply. It runs from a 110v socket and uses much less power than any older stereo as a comparison. The sound is great for the amount of watts each speaker uses.
