RE: Enlighten me ...

The Sansui amp and tuner that I have (AU-222 and TU-666) from the early 70's do have non polarized plugs. So in the case of the AU-517 I think you are correct that there is no danger. Since the Japanese receiver I saw self destruct when its polarized plug was reversed, was from the late 70's, for the US at least, I can't say it is safe for all receivers. US spec receivers do not usually have multi voltage, so they are not usually the same as what you get in Great Brittan, even if the model is the same, so I can make no claims about them.
