[QUOTE="Doogle, post: 75719, member: 392"] Been using USA components I brought back in 2001 with stepdown trannies for years now with no ill effects. As long as the VA (Watt) rating of the stepdown transformer is adequate for the current draw. I believe they just run little hotter on 50Hz (SA) than 60Hz (USA). Sonically I presume they sound the same. I am a complete electronic no-nothing, so I'm quite prepared to be klapped by the fundi's. :o Rgds, Doogle [/QUOTE]
