I saw some reviews saying that the power cord isn't standard for the US. Is it still worth getting? Did they just send them the wrong power cord?

I didn't have any problems with the power cord that came with it. Didn't even realize there was a problem. Sorry, not help help.

The one I have I use a three prong cord which can be used in any standard outlet with or without adpator

power cord works in US. Maybe they got the wrong cord, but mine works fine.

No they have a power cord but the plug in is European. You have to buy a travel adapter to make it work.

The charger i got with mine is a standard u.s. charger. Have not had any issues. Hope that helps.

It comes with one click-on US power adapter. So you would have to get that part and swap it on the power supply, but this particular package only comes with the US adapter.

I ordered mine through Amazon, and it was shipped from Japan, with a US power cable, I had no problems.

Not the one sold here in the US. I don't know if you order one from the UK or other European versions of Amazon. I would think it would say on the specs on those sites if it was compatible with European power sockets.

It's made for the US and works fine as is. Mine gets heavy usage and is still working like new.

Yes. The power cord is made for the US, and it comes with an attachment for Europe and Japan

I live in New York City, a small island just off the coast of the USA, and mine works fine! In fact I've purchased this twice and had no problem. There are two cords--one goes from the back of one speaker to the back to the other. The power cord plugs into the back of the master speaker and the other end goes into a standard electrical outlet. I just got up and looked at mine and I have to wonder if you were sent a European version or something, because it seems pretty straightforward, and not likely the kind of thing you'd miss.In summary--I think they sent you the wrong one;\:-) I live in New York City, a small island just off the coast of the USA, and mine works fine!

I would recommend not doing so. I had a European one that I brought to the states. It died on me within a few months. Find one for the 220V and buy that one.

thanks for pointing that out! Units sold in the US come with the 110v power cord. the 220v can be ordered separately

I did not get the warranty for the U.S. and the unit came with typical power adapter from England, not used in the USA.

Yes it has a standard (USA) power cord for regular 115 AC home voltage. I'm not sure of the wattage draw but I assume it's similar to most any standard radio/CD player of this type.(not excessive in my experience)

It uses the standard for US. If you need to use it elsewhere, it's worth it to buy an adapter. It's that cool.

My first thought would be to contact the manufacturer. If they say you can use a standard power cord, then buy it locally.

Good question! Some versions came with a separate charging cord which presumably would be available in different voltage types. I would suggest you log onto Amazon UK or Amazon France (depending on where you live) and order there, as they would be set up to accommodate that power standard.

If you bought it in the US and taking it to Europe you need to convert the power from 110 to 220 or it is going to burn out. Either the power cable already has the converter and it is a small black box that is part of the power cable. All you need is an adapter for the plug. If the power cable is just a plain cable without a special little black box attached to it then you need to buy a 50 dollar transformer. It is cheaper to order those on Amazon as I have done.

Mine is 120V US version. Power adaptor is also only good for 120V. I ordered this item based on this comment. I will have to return mine.
