2:90 Power rating

[WeeTed]

I just bought a 2:90 from the USA with 117 Volt power suply. I need to get a step down transformer to use it here in the UK (ie 240V to 110V)
What power rating does it need to be 100 Watts or 300 Watts?
Does anyone know how much it would cost to get the amp modified to a UK voltage (replace the internal transformer)?
cheers
Ted

I've got one 2:fifty bought from USA; i've take a step down transformer 500 W (the power consum of the 2:fifty is about 320 W), so i thinkyou need one at minimum rating 600-800 W...
The cost to modified my amp was about 300 Euro (200 for the trasformer + 100 for work)...
bie!

you just have to make :

FUSE Amperes X voltage = power in WATTS

an example :

2.5A fuse X 117V = 292.5 Watts
