I recently got myself a IIc+ simul head with no export tranny. Over here we use 230 volt, so I'll have to buy a step down transformer for it. My question: Will a 300 watt transformer do the trick?
The amp is 100w so it should do the trick, right? The reason I ask is because I've read about people using 500w and even 1000w step down transformers with their 100w amps. Is this just overkill or are there any sense in it?
Also, I've heard that voltage converters affects the tone in a negative manner..any opinions?
I sent Mesa/Boogie a mail asking if any of their certified workshops in Europe could install an export transformer, but I have not received any answer yet. Does anybody know if this is possible?
All input appreciated.
Thanks!
