Re: Polysix 100/120V to 220/240V conversion - Swapping transformer?
2014-12-29 by stalinjohansen@yahoo.com
Measured the AC-voltage coming out from the step-down converter, and it's 127V! (126.8V) That's no good.
Could
someone please list the effects on a Polysix (or any synth/audio
equipment for that matter) rated for 100V when the incoming voltage is
+27V?
I've read that a transformer receiving excessive voltage
will overheat, but will components literally die from this? What
components are affected by long term use of +27V of excessive voltage?
Also measured the AC-output from the wall socket today. Its 235V.
Should i get a 225VA or a 250VA transformer for the Polysix? Can't see that the local
store sells any 240VA transformers.. only 225VA and 250VA in that
VA-range.
