Amp/Preamp Asylum Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here. |

Hello mates. I need an advice of someone with more technical knowledge. I brought my favorite receiver from US to EU, 110V to 220V.
Before I moved I contacted Roy at Music Hall Audio and asked if they can swap power supply in my receiver for 220V model? First he sounded promising but when I decided to drive over and drop my receiver off he changed his mind and said they don't really do such mods.I was disappointed , because I knew they have voltage switchable amps in their lineup , so it was not an issue of not having correct replacement transformer.
I have used my Maven with a step down transformer (1500W) and neither of them are running hot. However recently I've opened the top of Maven for cleaning and what do I see, well you tell me. Do I see a universal voltage transformer that could be switched to 220? And if that is the case , how do I switch that sucker?
