Hello,
Last year I bought an amp from mainland Europe and saw that the AC voltage on the back is labelled 220V, also on the transformer inside there is a little sticker saying 220V. I have been using the amp and I suppose it runs a bit hotter than the expected and the transformer might be getting saturated. At home I get around 245V. However I got myself thinking if there is anything that I need to do to address this discrepancy? I am kind of familiar with the voltage differences between the UK and Europe and that even though we are supposed to be matched at 230V in reality that's not the case.
The amp's transformer is ILP and it has extra wires safely tucked away. Is it possible that one of them is for 240V input?
Thanks!
