hi,
has anyone got experience with product for US voltage 110V useing in Europe 220V?
I'm in US for a one more month and I'l like to buy these products.
1.mackie HR824,monitors
2.Lexicon MX-200,ef.procesor
3.E-mu 1820m,sound card
is it enough to get just a Voltage converter-transformator from 110V to 220V??
of course converter has to be strong enough for the power of monitors (260W).
thanx for help

it happened to me more than once that i ran 220v trough a 110v machine, everytime the fuse blew, so the compressor/mixer didn't set fire  maybe i was just lucky, be sure to always check if the gear can handle the voltage, i do'nt have any equipment that automaticly switches between currents but most of my stuff is vintage, guess that explains why.. and for music gear i tend to buy the "more expensive" transfos since the very small cheap ones get extremely hot, and i regularly leave my gear "online" for 12 hours straight, 7/7 i never had a transfo blown but i did burn my fingers on one once!
