Hey all,
Just something I've been curious about lately. Every piece of audio gear I have is rated for the standard US voltage (120V). However, there are several vintage pieces of gear on my "wish list" that are quite hard to find versions of that are strictly US/North America voltage spec. However, I often find these pieces from worldwide sellers - many of them have multiple plug outlets on the rear panel, with a rated voltage range of 100-240v.
My question - does this mean I would be able to safely use gear like this on a US outlet by simply using the correct plug type/outlet/adapter? (i.e - no use of step up/down transformers).
Thanks!
