Actually, I had a line transformer to convert from 240v to 120v, but I 
flipped it to 240v, then back to 120v, THEN I put a 240v cable in it! 
The sparks flew, but the fuse (which caused the sparks) saved the synth.

The 3 times since have just been power surges, which is why using the 
same fuse as the original specs is crucial.

I've never owned anything as valuable as this (I don't own a car), which 
is why the Xpander causes me stress whenever it blows a fuse.
